I had to have Jorge's panel beater fab an entire rear end and fenders for a
Jag XK150 DH. Several errors were made but, he was, in the end an honest guy
to deal with. Mind that's been nearly 10 years ago. The long and short was
he got it done and made it much easier than shipping from the UK.. YRMV :~)

As a follow up, my friend elected to purchase (for more money) a fuel tank
from a source other than angelheartpancho (Jorge Cervera) on ebay.  My
friend reported that Jorge's attitude was horrible when it came to answering
questions regarding the quality of the fuel tank and the return policy.

All the recent tanks that I have received recently looked liked they were
straightened with a sledge hammer.  The vertical sides were not square. The
front and rear  sides were not bowed so the straps would not reach. I
returned
all of them.
