- You got a general answer from Moss because frankly no-one here new any real specifics. Over the weekend at MG2003 I got to attend an excellent presentation by John Mangles of Hi Tech Collision in St

- To my knowledge. Yes. When they were building up complete cars, they never stripped all the paint off. This is a very good question. Kai pointed out that he knew of a BMH shell rebuild that started
