PANEL BEATER?
Kia ora all, my 17 year old son worked hard & saved to buy himself his first car........"Maggie", a purple 1972 Austin 1300 "landcrab". Quite distinctive, you may have seen it around.
He was well informed of the potential ongoing cost of purchasing a vehicle of that age, but wanted something to suit his personality : ), and its a great father / son regular maintenance project!
The seller arranged for a new WOF which it passed "with flying colours"............but not sure how, as when taking it in for a WOF check yesterday ( only 5 mths later ), "a few" issues need attending to.
So back to work for my son to raise the funds to remedy these issues ( likely to get a wee bit of help from the bank of Mum & Dad, its his pride & joy, and he has had a tough year for a number of reasons )
The reason for this post is to see if anyone out there knows of a reputable, reasonably priced panel beater able to deal with perhaps the biggest issue......some rust in the floor & right hand sill.
Maggie turns heads wherever she goes, its awesome to see the smiles on the faces of other motorists & pedestrians alike as she passes, so it would be great to keep her on the road.
Would appreciate any feedback.
Many thanks in advance from myself & my son.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
