Gaz Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 If ya want a MINT job and are willing to pay for it then try the paint and panel shop behind caltex at the begining of Adalaide rd. Just past McD's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venice Posted November 18, 2007 Author Share Posted November 18, 2007 is that the Adelaide Road in Newtown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Yup thats the one. The place is off it. Coming from the basin up Adalade its the first or second right hand road. Just on the corner a petrol station is on.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venice Posted November 18, 2007 Author Share Posted November 18, 2007 Cheers for the info! I am a bit short in cash at the moment, so I am just thinking of getting the rust removed (and get them primered) and save up for a paint job later.

Unclejake Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 ^ They probably won't want to know you (Arlingtons) unless you are in a year 2000 plus euro. Also - I reckon their paint work is sensational but they aren't the best to deal with IMHO. I can't actually recommend anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durty Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 i work in a panel shop but i wouldnt recommend us for rust work lol will ask round the boys to see whos good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radman Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 theres a place in Porirua called The Surgery, they did a quote for a bit of panel and full respray to new car standard for me, when i asked my mate whos in the trade he said it was a good deal. They had a large variety of cars in the workshop at the time, and theyve done alot of restorations, i also think they specialise in euros aswell.

.: SR Coupe :. Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Hey man for rust repairs i highly reccomend Paul from Classic Panel in Hawkins street, Woburn Lower Hutt. He does all the rust and panel work while another guy does the painting. Paul has always been keen as to do cashies for rust repairs and doesnt charge much either. Theyr a hot rod shop but have always been happy to squeeze my work in, and turns it round quick. : 569 5052 or 025 267 8347. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamie_schollum Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 um they had to send the little bit of paint thay had away to get matched up but thay have one of the best painters in newzeland painting it so it should come out good, he said he will blend it in over the hole guard and it should get pretty close to the colour. He made up a code for it aswell so when i touch it up i will have a code to go by. narh can't afford it as his labour is so much haha.. if anyone was at drags in the weekend and you saw the autoimage falcon, or green f100 or even the airbrusd fridge. you will no what im talking about.
