A YORK man has been nominated for a prestigious Bodyshop award, the motor

repair industry's equivalent of the Oscars.

Andy Chappelow has been short-listed for the Panel Technician Of The Year award. Andy, an employee of crash repair chain Just Car Clinics, will attend a gala dinner in Wales in October at which the winners will be announced.

Barry Whittles, chief executive of Just Car Clinics, said, "I would like to extend my congratulations to all of the short-listed members and wish them all well."
