Reputable shop in North AL or TN
Hopefully i'm not posting in the wrong section, but I didn't come up with much in the regional thread area and the couple of threads I did see pertaining to shops were dead.
I just picked up a clean, lightly modified 69 Camaro that i'm looking to have some work done on. My problem is that i'm new to the scene and to my knowledge, there's not many places in the North Alabama area that I know I could trust to do the work, so i figured i'd reach out to my new forum friends. I'm hoping with me being so close to Nashville that will turn up some good results.
As for the work, i'm looking to do a 4-link, front sub frame, mini tub and full brake upgrade at the very least. the body is great and i'm ok with the paint scheme for now. So it's all going to be work on the handling and braking. I spoke to Detroit Speed and they recommended Greening Auto Company in Nashville. If anyone has had any experience with these guys or any other capable, honest shops, let me know.
Thanks in advance
Chris

Define North Alabama. There are a few good shops in Gadsden area, which is Northeast. I am not plugged in with Decatur/Huntsville, etc. I can ask my builder if he knows anybody reputable in North AL. The shop I am using is about 30 minutes south of Birmingham.

I'm in Huntsville but I don't have a problem driving to a good shop. I've got a friend in Decatir that does amazing work but it would probably be 2 years before he could even touch my car. I just want it done right the first time instead of someone hacking it up.

I'm in florence al. Do you know Greg Blaydes in Athens? G&s fab is his company and he does alot of pt suspension work. Another guy local to me is david key with key suspension and performance. He does great work but more toward to drag race but can do anythjng. Both are really hope estate guys. I would look into Greg first since he is close to you. If you need is contact info pm me.
