Query: If you want to know what they call auto body men in NZ, why did you pose the question to Australian members?

Thank you Tony
My best friends Daughter and Son in-law bicycled thru NZ in the 70's and brought back photos of a sign at a body shop I thought it was interesting, descriptive and a tad funny.

Used to be called Panel Beaters in the U.K. to, but not heard the term used for many a year.

In Liverpool we called them Panel Wackers or Tin Bashers. Don't know what they call them now, since the advent of Fibreglass and Bondo.
