So you leave your precious at a respected garage for a little service... then the mechanic takes it for a 'spin'.

Hello everyone, I just started to modify my coupe one bit at a time. unfortunately the mech seem to be too busy and slow to continue. I would like if anyone could recommend me to someone to finish the job? I live around the Dagenham area of Essex than you.
