Unfortunately there aren't many good garages in my area to do this kind of work. You're best off asking some local people with knowledge of local garages

yo cheers dennis. you got any luck with selling your car mate?
so what job did they do? and how much rust did your car have?
how long did it take them to fix it?

work currently too busy to have any time to even take a picture of her for selling.
it didn't have much rust but I asked for the whole of the underneath for a seal. I originally planned to keep it for the long term and hence really wanted to get her restored properly.
they need at least a week but since I was out of the country during xmas I left it with them.
apardal's http://www.aeu86.org/viewtopic.php?t=975 project is closest to what I want to do which is http://www.carland86.com/star/miki/file_03.html
but finding someone who can do this and trustworthy AND not too costly is impossible.
