A Useful Hint
Sir,
On a recent stay at Leicester in my 1930 M-type M.G. I was told about a small firm of coachbuilders who specialise in restoration and who also supply these type of cars. They are Messrs. Stewart 3: Son Forest Street, Shepshed, a small country town about eight miles north of Leicester. I was delighted at the courtesy I received from these two people, who drove me back to Leicester in a 1934 Rover Pilot, after I had agreed to leave my car for respraying. Their promise to return it within one week was kept with three hours to spare, and with a finish that can only be described as magnificent. These old-fashioned coachbuilders tell me all their work is hand polished, which accounts for the beautiful lustre. I can thoroughly recommend this firm to anyone who .appreciates a craftsman. I have no connections whatsoever with the above firm.
