    Question Who/where is your go to place for paint/bodywork?

    Just wondering who you guys have used locally for paint/bodywork that does good work.
    I used to do it myself years back, but I no longer have access to a shop and a spray booth.

    I'm potentially buying a super clean 1995 GT that is going to need a couple panels painted to address some minor, 23 year old paint issues.
    I'm not looking for a bargain by any means, just high quality work at a legitimate price.

    Let me know what you think guys. Thanks.

    I have a guy in Brighton who did some work on my racecar last year. The work was very good and cost was legitimate.

    There's this guy. I heard newspaper is the top choice of all body and paint guys. It's totally solvent resistant.

    I used to be 'with it'. Then they changed what 'it' was. Now what I'm 'with' isn't 'it', and what's 'it' seems weird and scary to me.......

    A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again.
