Hello to everyone

Hi there. New to the forum and been reading various threads with interest. I have a 72 tc coupe at present but have had various marinas over the years my first being a t reg 1.3 coupe. It was TEN766T in an orangey red colour, has any one seen or got or possibly broke it by any chance. I have checked the dvla site but i think it may have been scrapped by now unless its lurking around in some ones shed. I am planning on gathering up some spare panels and hopefully doing a full resto at some point on the tc. Uncle Frank does a top job as far as i can see on here, can any one recommend somebody around the North Wales area for body and paint work at all? cheers for now. :wink:

:) Hi JBA1!, Welcome to the forum, sounds like a nice TC you have there, as Jan-ivar said "got any pics?", i always like to see early TC`s saved, i have a couple myself, lovely looking motors full of character ,especially the early ones :wink: , thanks for the kind words re my work, sorry i can`t recommend anyone up your way as i don`t know any bodyshops up there, all i can say is ask around a few bodyshops that specialise in older cars and ask if you can see some examples of their work and if possible speak to some previous customers, if they have nothing to hide and are proud of their work, this should not be a problem.
I`m always willing to give advice on bodywork ,if i can help just ask :wink: .
