Hi
Restoring my S2
Looks like I have some serious body work repairs to sort out before re spraying,
including the sills that have blown as a result of the steel reinforcement bars rusting.
Any advice or experience out there gratefully received.
Was wondering if "HOW TO RESTORE FIBREGLASS BODYWORK by MILES WILKINS" .
Would be usefull if anyone local to Chichester has a copy I could look through.
Or should I just get myself a copy.
Thanks Guys, John

I've just bought a secondhand copy on the net amazon. It's good reading and confirms the way i do repairs is correct. Just go out and buy a copy and also the book about painting by Miles.
Miles is still selling parts so you could get the Trellis from him for the sills. I would get it galvanised if it hasn't been already. I only use Matt + Resin + finish with Tissue NO FILLER. It takes longer but there will be no Ghost images returning where repairs have been done.
Have fun
