Welding Clapham area

Post by **c.morewood** » 18 Mar 2011, 08:50

Sorry for being a little off topic.
My daughter, who lives in Clapham needs a small bit of welding done to her KA for the mot. She's not at all car savvy and gets a bit intimidated going into garages and I'm too far away to help.
Are there any "friendly" welding places/ member who weld in that area?
Thanks
Chris

Shame she is not nearer to East Sussex as both Citronut and I could help, being dab hands at the alchemy of turning rust back to solid metal.

You know the real problem, its the wrong car (KA)

It should be a Citroen, or the very least a Peugeot.

i quite agree Richard

also isnt it in the wrong suberb it should be in the dust bin at Daganham

besides i dont think the apmpers will turn down low enough to weld a KAK

,

i has not trouble on dersh'ys (2cv's),

Teenagers driving cars!

Whatever next! I suppose they'll stop you having to drive with a walking footman, waving a red flag, in front of the car soon.

BTW, there does seem to be a plethora of shady small garages based in the Clapham area, all invariably lodged in the railway arches.

Spoilt for choice really, just dont get one that does pigeon welding.

Yes there are quite a few.. but I thought a personal recomendation, rather than putting a pin in a map blindfolded, would help. And with the wealth of knowledge on this forum I thought there might ust be someone local to her.
I'm stilll hopeful !!
