I have just bought a 1967 Beetle and received the results from a comprehensive inspection by the RACV. As I expected, there is a lot of body work to be done. Some minor panel beatiung is required to the fenders, rust is developing in the pan, advanced rust in the doors. Can anyone please recommend quality panel shops in Melbourne who can restore the pan and provide a bare metal spray. Any indications of likely cost ranges would be great so I can see whether or not I will be eating during the next few months or visiting family/friends a lot!

You might want to call Jeff Hind at Jeff Hind Smash Repairs (East Bentleigh) on 9563 7955; he did some rust work on my truck and I'm happy with the result.

Plan on getting very familiar with your relations and long-lost friends.
