HI Jim


I am in Bath. The garage I used is Midland Car Company, so
recommendations wanted other than that one.

I have a couple of options. There is a body shop in Bath that
specialises in MGBs but will tackle anything of similar age, and he
doesn't do MOTs so he must have someone he uses for that. And there is
the Morris Minor Centre that has recently moved from Bath to Bristol,
but they might have a recommendation in Bath. So I can ask around, but
any suggestions from the NG gratefully accepted.


I bought a used Moggie traveller from the MMC in Bristol - and based
on that experience, I'd thoroughly recommend them.
Much more 'traditional ways' than 'quickfit'....

Equally - anybody in Bath that they were to recommend should be OK...

Hope this helps

I will see what the MOT results are, and get an impression of the
mechanic from the way he describes what he found. And if he doesn't
find anything unaffordable wrong, I am inclined to let him do the work
and judge him by how it is done. After all, he will be putting his name
on the MOT certificate afterwards.

But if I do think I have to go somewhere else, I will speak to Charlie
Ware (he lives in Bath, and I often see him around), pass on your
appreciation, and see what he has to say. Thanks for the recommendation.


No problem.
To jog his memory - it's the Almond Green '64 Traveller that he sent
to the stained glass guy in south-west Ireland......
....that should narrow it down a bit g

Good luck
Adrian
