I would wholehearted recommend Howells in Bangor to anyone. They’ve done a superb job on any of my cars needing paintwork.
KRCR is very near me and I plan to give them a turn as they’re highly recommended on RMS.
I recall being invited to the launch of the Austin Metro in WH Alexander in Linenhall Street when I was about 15. Highlight of the evening was sitting in a Triumph TR7
Always promised myself one, but have gone to another family member now.
Some people grow up with Ford or Vauxhall, I mainly grew up with BL cars.

Another vote for KRCR, done a few things for me over the years and handy from Belfast.

About half-way between Newtownards and Donaghadee. I don't know if they do media blasting themselves but they do all manner of paintwork, bodywork, crash repair, etc. If they don't do the blasting themselves I'm sure they could help get it done too.

Just across the road is IC Powder Coaters. They did the MG wheels for me, and have media blasting facilities. I remember seeing a Metro shell sitting outside their place when I was getting some metalwork done in the premises next door.
There are a number of useful ventures going on at that end of the Killaughey Road, just in behind Hugh Drennan's kitchen makers.

Yep, KRCR used a place across the road for fibreglass repairs on the Lotus (don't ask
).

Things are Pretty Slow as usual but Some headway is being made with Final touches on the Fab Front & Wiring.
The Car was Farmed out to Grattan Motorsport Fabrication a few weeks ago for a long list of final Bracketry etc.
First off Richard was little offended but some of the work done so he reworked the steering column, I thought he was mad but its defiantly a tidier job..
Previously -
Now -
He then turned to a few small rust Repairs two around the Back Window and one on the inner Sill, these are the only parts that needed attention,
when he was at the sill he decided scallop another area from the inner sill to allow for the fuel lines to run their rather than up the tunnel as they have been
fouling on the Drivers seat.
