Update on this topic. With the search option now working I have turned up many theads regarding repairing door pillars/ footwells etc. Thanks again for your help. BTW my pillars are in pristine condition compared to what I have seen here. And they were repaired! cheers Peter

Go a bit further west and you will find me in Poole.

Thanks to all for their input.

Thanks for the heads up on powder coating. I will give that a miss. If you remember the thread on the repaired similar area I would appreciate it. I have been through 40 pages so far without luck because the search option has gone tits up. cheers Peter

Drop arm puller £30-£40 on ebay. don't know how good they are. Mine is still on the splines in the corner of the garage.

With a closer look you are correct there. I reckon on making a positional template up for holes and nuts, I could make a new plate, weld the nuts on and fit behind a new repaired panel. There still seems to me a lot of overlapping parts there unless they are previous repairs. The feet of the...

Hi folks, After some careful thought regarding renovation of my bulkhead, I will slowly diy the job. Well not really diy because the Uncle of my sons friend is a welder and has done a bit of work on their project car (Jetta) I have seen his stick welding work in awkward places, and it looks...

That is heart breaking when all the time and effort and money you spend, And you get poor workmanship. I am still looking for a place for my series 3 to be done

Shielder, right another one to avoid

Hi Phil, nice work and clean. Did you do your bulkhead yourself or send it somewhere? I have a series 3 in a similar position and am looking for a company to do it. cheers Peter.

I got my engine harness for my series 3 88 from here https://www.autosparks.co.uk/

Thanks for suggestions folks. Nice work Blacburn. My welding is restricted to straight lines and on a bench, I dont think my skills are up to it. I have been looking at local fabricators/galvanising online ( I am in Poole Dorset) which I may contact if need be. I have had no reply from Ashtree...

Thaks for that. A difficult decision to make when it concerns lots of money. Like buying a house. I will make enquiries around . cheers Peter

Hi dag, How long ago did you have your work done? How long did it take them? I looked on Facebook and they had received some complaints etc (i know you cannot keep everyone happy) I have emailed Ashtree again last week, still no answer.. I may try Classic. cheers Peter
