So glad they got it back to you undamaged and working. I have to assume things are different in England from Scotland. Up here we just give the factor the reg no and chassis number if asked and the parts arrive at the garage within the hour.
Don’t get me wrong we get the odd box with three brake pads in it, or sometimes a box with a different part to that listed on the box. But 95% of the time they get it correct first time and if it’s wrong it’s usually an incorrect repack.
I know I retired ten years ago but I still stick my head in to my old workshop from time to time. It is sad that the restoration business has been dropped in favour of eurobox work but its new owner will be a rich man. Unlike me who made an extra living to pay for the family’s extras.
The boys still phone the factors after the strip down and the parts are there before they are ready to re assemble the car.
Is the supply chain different down south.
