hello people.OK i'm going to ask again as the last guy fell through. Does anyone know of a great panel beater in the Waikato/ BOP region, possibly someone semi retired or that works from home who is into classic cars.We have a FD Victor and a RX2 that we want done right by an enthusiast.but we don't have a money printer so not looking for a commercial panel beater. thanks all thanks

depends on how rooted it is could be a bucket of worms when you start and you will need a money printer no matter what. usually best if you can do your own work or at least 80% of it or it will always be expensive in the end.

Found it on google maps, 40 Piako rd, I can see his big green shed. I tried white pages as well, they have proved really useless since they left Telecom, complete waste of space.

I am a retired panelbeater which I seldom confess to, because if I sayso I know what the next question is going to be, do you fix rust!, or i have a vintage car! yea right! and most of them have short arms and long pockets. my answer is always NO
