Hey everyone Im the new guy from Texas. I need some help finding a trustworth body shop to do some sheet metal work on my 68 camaro. I would do it the work myself but I don't have the room or the tools for the undertaking at this time. Some of you probably have the same feeling when it comes to turning your car over to a stranger (this is the trustworthy part). I live in the DFW area can anyone help? :fingersx:
Thanks again!

Damn wish you were closer I would offer to take the job. Got a smaller restoration shop in slaughter,la 30 minutes outside of baton rouge. Would love to do it. Just about to finish a 1966 mustang fixing to start posting pic on a tread on the project update section. Sure u can find someone closer good luck.

Wish you where closer also! I just want to find someone that will take the time to do it right and not brake it off in me when it comes time to pay the bill. Lol Im even willing to do all the grunt work of taking it apart. I just dont have any way to keep it square in the asembly of the car.

Well if u decide to take a road trip with it don't forget about me. Had a oldan around the house that did lawnmower repair great guy had a sign in his front yard that said "Either real quick or real good can't have both" try to keep that in mind when you are asking around. Finding it harder and harder to find body shop that do this work anymore as they make so much more off of collision repairs. Give me a call if you got guestions 225-287-4948.

Or give one of the Venders here a call lot's of place's to talk to that will take could care of your car, I have to agree with the statement above (real quick or rear good) you should get what you pay for an the guy thats going to do it cheap is going to have to cut corners some were to make money!:idea:
