As for workmanship. Iv'e paid a supposed top notch garage in the past to repair a Vauxhall and compared to Tom they were terrible. Tom doesnt mind you watchi g and he sends photos as he works if you provide contact info.
I saw some of the hand formed panels he had made when I was collecting my 75 from him Dawn, he is undoubtedly one of the best there is.

And in case anyone doubts my word, my Uncle was a panel beater at Rolls Royce so I have seen the skills involved in turning a flat sheet of metal into a perfectly formed shape.

If your 75 needs sills, get it booked in with Tom.
