Ive spoken to a few but they are all booked up till christmas. I have someone that could do it for me but it isnt something that they have done before and may struggle.

I dont mind travelling too far for the right job. I just dont want to wait till christmas

What sort of cost would you be looking at for just the welding?
Just out of interest... I'd love a Mk2 Orion Cossie...

Afraid its not a job I would take on, i'm not a specialist welder/fabricator.

The work that was done on Cutch's Series 1 RS Turbo was by Ali and 'Wee John' at MJ Racing in Scotland - it was to a very high standard.

I first met Jano when he had just finished the red mk4 escort cossie and he told me he did all the work and conversion himself, but as others on here have said he is usually snowed in with work and this kind of thing takes time so its worth the ask but recon he'll want more than 2.5k to push his other work back!

AG has im sure stopped the fabrication side of things, his fabricator Scott has set up on his own so i presume any work AG will pass on to him from now on, get in touch with AG and they will forward you Scott's number.
