Hopefully, I'm not breaking any rules with asking, if so I'm sorry.

Need help/advice on finding a Bodyshop that can handle rust 6 (1-10) and paint. I'm noticing that the bed is starting to rust on the Elco and I would like to take care of it before it worsens.
I've gone to see a few shops and just wasn't happy with what I saw or heard.

Has anyone dealt with a shop in south Florida and was happy with their end result?
obviously I understand that every car is different and I would still need to do my own research, just looking for recommendations.

Try to Google for reviews in your area and see what comes up. You may have to find an actual restoration shop . Finding shops to handle rust has gotten difficult around Pgh. A buddy of mine has been looking for a year now. Its sure changed since I left the business in 89. Good luck

Pick up a copy of Mike Kelly's Cruise News.
There's lots of ads for various types of shops and services. Ask around at your local cruise-ins and see who some of the other people would recommend. Some of your best referrals are from word of mouth.
Sorry I can't recommend or refer anyone to you. But good luck!

Tower Shops?

If your willing to come to the northern half of the state, I can give you a couple suggestions.

It's in the Towner plaza
1904 S University Dr, Davie, FL 33324

To be honest I haven't been in a while so I'm not sure the quality of the turnout. But it was a great place to spend a few hours on a Friday. Hopefully it's still going on.
