VW Beetle Welding Help Required - Bristol

[Craig D]

Hi,

I don't know if this is the correct area to post this but i'm requiring some help to restore my 1965 Classic Beetle. Sorry if this isn't the forum or site for me to do this.

I'm currently in a situation where the pans have been removed and i'm needing to help in the x-members and the new floor pans, as well as relocate the accelerator, clutch and brake peddle holes.

I will also need quite a lot of welding done to the body/shell to get it ready to paint.

I'm located in Portishead which is South Bristol.

Would anyone be interested in this? Or can you recommend any places that will do a show winning job?

Thanks for ready.

This site encourages people to have a go, there are tutorials and a wealth of knowledge..

Are you in a position to want to do it yourself ?

@clarkey31 : I cant see your Facebook link. It must of been removed. Do you have a website I can peruse?

@Sean : I've got a build thread on that forum but no one seems to want to help out. Before I got the bug everyone was saying theyd love to help out and see the project take off. As soon as I got it no one wanted to help and everyone seemed busy all the time. lol

@Coo : I'd love to take the work on myself but I'm really not that confident at the moment. I'd rather get one car under my belt before I attempt to do any of the work myself.

I think with bugs and help, it all depends if you have someone near.....

Good luck

Hi I might not have copied the link over properly but if you search custom classics ltd on Facebook it should come up.

That is over website but don't really update the gallery on there much these days as it easier on Facebook.

Hi, I've had my fair share of beetles and campers, we used to chop them up and weld them back together all the time, whilst I'm veering off the thread, it brings back memories, if I had time I'd do it for you .....

Gavin. How about some photos of the purple car???
