I've got two projects, Beetle and Ghia, and am looking for a body shop anywhere upstate to do floor panels and door panels. Anywhere from Buffalo to Albany fine since I have a huge network of family along the way.

I'll certainly try to hit the Syracuse show next AUG but would like to get started before then.

I'm one of those wierd guys who loves mechanical work, electrical work, but just stand in admiration of you who can paint, weld, and sculpt...I just don't have the artist in me I guess.

I would ship mine from OR to RI to have Tim do it if I had the bucks. There is only the Yellow Pages if you don't have big bucks. Twisted Evil https://www.facebook.com/pages/401-Restos-Rods-Customs/132422650183496

Floors is the perfect place to learn welding and body work as it does not show. By the time you got the floors done maybe your skills would be ready for some visible body panels.

Thanks ptjjb, appreciate the input. I thought about this as a strategy too.
