I've been having a poke around the outer sill of my 944 S2, and managed to put a hole in it (doh!). So before the whole lot goes, can anyone recommend any welders/restorers in the Nottingham area? I'm guessing it's likely to involve anywhere between a patch repair and complete sill replacement.

Had the bodywork on mine sorted last year, damn good job by Rust to riches at Hemswell (reasonable as well!) but probably be too far for you, Link to my post asking for recommendations last year

Hi thanks, yeah that is too far away from me, need someone closer to Nottingham!

On 2nd thoughts it might be worth a phone call to :-
PH Sportscars (Shardlow)
or
Zentrum Porsche www.zentrum.co.uk/ Nottingham

to see if they can recommend anyone.

Have used both some years ago for servicing bit not bodywork.

try Cavendish Classics - he was nextdoor to PH sportscars & is now in Long Eaton. 0115 972 8209

Is that Kev?

no

JD

Sorry to dig up this old post, but to update everyone I went with JD at Cavendish Classics in Long Eaton. He did a good job of cutting out the rusty section, welding in a replacement, then painting. Cost was £200. He told me he has another in recently that required alot more work, sills, arches, floor.

Anyway he did a good job, if you are in the Nottinghamshire area I would check him out for welding work.

Another shout out in favour of Jay at Cavendish Classics, has done work on my 924S race car, inc sills, and does a good job and is very reasonable rates.

He also did a fair amount of work on my Audu Ur Quattro, and I wouldn't entrust that to many people!

Excellent - always good to hear a happy ending
