Default Welder needed in Norfolk/Suffolk

I have a s2 escort rs turbo that I need welding, do you know anyone? It needs new roof putting on rear arches inner and outer, front wings, scuttle panel, front panel, crossmember, new floor pans and 1 piece just in side drivers door


I do have a pretty decent bonus shell and have been thinking of a resell but would really like to keep an original rs. I'm stuck in two minds at the moment as the bonus shell doesn't need a lot of work at all.

If I could find someone to do my welding on my rs for a fair price then that might help me make my kind up! CheeRS

No brainer to fit it into the bonus. You'll save a heap of cash.

Put the money into something else! It sounds like the turbo is pretty far gone.

Hi mate I'm in Sudbury, Suffolk. Could do all that no problem but what's your budget. That's one hell of a lot of work. And then it would need painting. Again I do all this but you would need a big budget

Hi, thanks for the reply, I haven't brought any of the panels yet as I didn't want them getting damaged in my shed and I wanted to find someone that could do it for me first. What sort of price will I be looking at for your labour? I have a friend of a friend who is a sprayer so once I know what I'm doing I will get it all booked up.

Yeh it's pretty far gone, but would like to have an original rs but I know that will come at a big price. It seems a shame for me to cut the roof of the bonus as it's really tidy compared to the rs.
