Need a body guy/shop

[camaromann]

I need a body guy who is experienced with race cars and more specifically working with composite panels finish fitting them and cutting body gaps. Only steel is 1/4 panels and roof. Car has been blasted inside/out and underneath, and was put in PPG dp90. There is minimal repair on 1/4's and almost none on the roof. I need this car 100% finished and ready for paint. I do NOT want it painted right now though. I'd like to make a few trips to the track since it's a new car again, and I want to make sure nothing out of the ordinary happens. Doors and front clip are mounted, but need slight trimming at the rear of the front fenders where they meet the door. I need my car done by the end of the month and feel there is only about a weeks worth of honest work. Prefer close to Warren/Clinton twp. Who do any of you recommend? Is there anyone I should stay away from? Thanks!

Carl's Custom Concepts isn't far from you and was said to be good.

Give Carl a call. He painted my car.

Carl at Carl's Custom Concepts or Kevin at Straightline Paint & Performance are both good shops and both on the forum here.

I would also say Carl or Kevin. I don't know about a month though. There's this thing called "body shop purgatory" lol. Good shops are always busy. OJ might be able to knock it out quick. He does awesome work, & I know he's done a lot of race cars.

Ya, I have no idea why these damn body and paint guys don't want to work and get a job done, and put another paying job in the shop.

I feel your pain Ryan, something about being "artists" i guess... hahahaha...

Just decided to do it myself, hell.. it might even be fun!?

I'd see if OJ is interested in doing it.

OJ is always swamped but does great work. He is a one man shop and a perfectionist. Not sure if your time frame would work or not with him. Shoot him a pm though.

I would try CCC and get a time frame
