Rod1883 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 A b***y Waitrose van reversed into the front of the TR2 today! I'd followed him into the village where he stopped, as did I, to let a vehicle come the other way past a parked car, and then he set off again as I did. He then stopped again and started to reverse and although I had stopped, before I could check behind me and start to move back he hit me albeit gently. I had managed to hit the horn before he hit, whether that slowed him or not I don't know. Anyway it has pushed and bent the front apron slightly onto the radiator and popped both the front wings! Has anyone any recommendations on restorers/repairers in the West Sussex area - ideally somewhere in the Chichester/Bognor/Worthing/Horsham areas or not too far further afield as going for the quotes and then back for the work will be a pain otherwise?

Rod1883 Posted March 28, 2019 Author Share Posted March 28, 2019 The Assessor came today to look at the car. Nice chap, a classic enthusiast who has a number of cars , including a DB6(!). For some reason he didn't appreciate the MK3 Cortina mug we gave him his tea in. Anyway - he thought the front apron might be better replaced than repaired. Unless I'm mistaken didn't someone recently post a picture of a "small mouth" TR apron that they had in their shed/garage/loft? I've tried to search but can't seem to find the post. Can anyone remember the post and who posted it? Regards Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
