I live in south central Pa (Lancaster) and was wondering if anyone else in the area could reccomend me to a good bodyshop. I dont want to go to Macco and the local Pontiac dealer wants $7029! for a repaint. The body is in good shop except that the last owner had it repainted by someone who loved orange peel!

I had mine painted at Evans Body Shop in Akron PA. Turned out pretty good.

I hear Vision VW here in Reading will do a good job. They use Sickens brand paint, which is very durable. Thats what mine is, but it was painted in Indiana.

Hey skitime, would you mind letting me know about how much u paid for the work?

I would agree to the quality of Rockcrawl's bothers work. Not sure of his price but the paint work looks great.

My brother painted mine and a few others on the forum. His work is as good as you can afford it to be. I don't think he would do an entire car for under $2000.

I have seen his work also and can atest to its quality. i am a painter also so i know what i am looking at. And 2000-3000 dollars is about the right price for a quality paint job. I am not sure why that dealership quoted you the 8000 dollars price. Thats jus someone that doesn't want you business.

This hood was painted by Rockcrawls brother. I have had many cars pained including other pannels on this same car and his color match and quality was BY FAR superior to what was done at the dealers.

I'll talk to you more about this when i come pick up the springs. BTW- did you get my email?
