Hi all
I am just starting to restore my 1971 MG Midget and I am in need of a box and pan folder in order to make up bits to repair the badly rusted out bottom
Does any one have, or know of any one who has, a Gabro BF620 folder that I can buy off them
Any help would be gratefully received as this is the only bit of kit I need now before starting the rebuild
Thanks
Andrew
Andrew,
They turn up on eBay about once a week but so far have been beyond my pocket !

That's the problem with deep pockets.

=============== Andrew, I restored an MGB a few years ago, involved replacing most of the floor pan, etc. I made a metal folder out of a couple of pieces of hefty angle-iron, about 2" x 2" x 1/4", from memory. Rawl-plugged one piece to the concrete garage floor, and bolted on a couple of door-hinges and a short piece of 1/2" rod each end for handles. Worked! JW² =========
But they must have short arms!(:-)
A bit like mine!(:-)
I have a nice little booklet published by the Intermediate Technology Development Group, called "How to make a folding machine for sheet metal work" by Rob Hitchings.
Simple instructions for building a fair sized folding machine.
Can get in on Amazon here;
Hope this helps,
Ed
