Neath Abbey body auto repairs behind where watts tyre centre used to be " as you may know it's been knocked down "

Mal is the owner nice chap once you get to know him…not always keen on resto work as he is always busy with insurance work as most reputable body shops are these days..so be prepared for a few weeks wait to get it back……worth the wait though :-)

Depends on hours work on your golf he will always give you an estimate and never give you a fixed price……… a little worrying I know but they are good at what they do

Ah I know the place, I think some mates have had work done there before.

Yeah its going to be a lengthy wait but worth it in the end.

I've decided to go to a car restorer in hirwaun.
