Looks like you have swapped the ID chassis number on the Capri.. ^^^^ Might want to remove that picture. .. Looks through work though!  |

Its a section from another car as the whole drivers side floor was gone, there was half a number left, so as not to change it, it was replaced with a blank section, witch is why there is a section in the section temporarily. It will be replaced with its ID just hasn't yet, The guy that owns it holds a fairly high position in the motor industry so this will be fully declared and legit so much so as he plans to have an engineers report done on it just for sh*its and giggles, The local Ford centre manager has viewed the car and was very helpful with info,
Thanks for pointing it out but I don't feel the need as there's nothing to hide here boss

Some brilliant work! I wish there was someone local to me I could trust to do such good fabrication - my E28 is mint, except the rear corners of the boot are built out of sealant (not sure who did that). It's very frustrating! I'll get it sorted in the future though.

Thank you! You'd never know, its one of them things that has came up in convo with costumers/friends often ''Jasus if only I had a know ya when I had me'' mini/escort/other rusty car that got scrapped or sold for buttons, There's guys probably even chicks out there that can easily match what I do(just look trough this site), but I know what you mean locally I know maybe two garages that I'd trust to do work properly and to a as new condition, a lot of the guys and gals that I'd class as good either left for oz or just gave up and got a ''normal'' job, Recession and the change over to waterborne paints has changed the trade, even myself I work construction part-time atm, I'd rather do backbreaking work I find a breeze over rust, welders, straightening panels, fillers, wet sanding, dust and sparks and Of coarse colour matching, Somedays!  Find some space and give it a go( whats the worst that could happen ) Could be a given talent Or maybe we need to start an ADOPT A REPAIRER section, one guy gets a holiday the other gets his car fixed lol |

Wish i had known about you before i had my Lada brought over to England (was in Dungannon) as it needed the floors and wing sorted, which are okay, but could have looked so much better in your hands |
