Default Fabrication of bins and panels

Folks ,
As you will have seen I have been feeding parts of my carrier to a fabrication guy close to my office (100 metres away ).

They are called "Old Buck Restorations" and normally restore High class classic cars and sports cars IE Rolls Royce's and Lamborghini etc.

I am happy for them to copy any parts I have on my Mk1 or mk2 carriers , in fact they have been making aluminium patterns for parts they have already done for me. I also have parts list to double check items by number if needed. They have a very good turnaround time for parts as well.


Some of you have already ordered parts from them through me, but it probably better if you contact them directly for payment etc.

Point of contact ... Russ Greaves

Phone number .... 0044 7850674878

Email ................. Oldbuckrestorations@hotmail.com

Postal address ...... Old Buck Restorations
North Side Buildings,
Old Buckenham Airfield,
Abbey Rd,
Old Buckenham,
Norwich,
NR17 1UP
UK.

Well there you go .

Not a problem Ron, I know they have started on your bins so it won't be long . Ask Russ nicely and he might even wrap them in Christmas wrapping paper so you can open them on Christmas Day ! Ha ha ha

I received some parts from Russ yesterday. The quality is first class, great attention to detail. Not just your average tin basher. He's even kept the same style of weld to make sure it all matches the original.
