Mike:

These guys have been around for ages- they did the floors, rockers and 
frame bracing on 2 of my Tigers. The first one was at least 20 years 
ago. The second Tiger was @ 17 years ago. In both cases, I was very 
pleased with the work and the quality.
I don't know of the same owner is still involved, but they did exactly 
as they said they would at the price quoted.
Haven't to do any rust work on my TR6's, but i would certainly not 
hesitate to use them.
NFI, etc..
