Sorry about the cap.'s thing, but had to get yer attention You've probably all seen the post about what happend to my Vic. in shipping. For those who haven't, my just out of the paint booth car got the hood, front passenger fender, door, and a bunch of molding trashed by a careless truck driver and a fly around tie down. I desperately need referals to reputable and good paint shops around the Seattle area. I'll even drive to Portland if need be. Please help guys. Thanks.
I always do my own work- I'm not that picky I guess but I have seen some nice stuff come out of a shop in West Seattle, I am not sure of the name but, it's on Alaska between Fauntleroy and 35th. Sorry you have to go through this. Paul
Modern Collision Rebuild on Bainbridge. They build street rods and customs on the side, and have done some beautiful work. My wife's car was done there, and its real nice.
MYTYLO There is a bodyshop in Kenmore calle Carrige Case Ive seen some cars they have repaired and look good to Me, Feder

Also R&J customs outta buckley does some great work too, I know The head honcho down there a little... Let me know bro. -J.
Hay Bud; I just P.M. you with an excelant choice. You will get top quality work not cheep but worth every dime and he will work with you and the ins. claim. The Wizzard
Mylow, My bud can give you a legal price or fixin your ride. Has all the paperwork stuff for "vintage" cars. NO***** PM me .......OLDBEET
I would avoid r&j kustoms in buckley. Sorry jkustom.... my uncle had his truck painted there... they left runs in the paint... definately not worth the money he paid them. Maybe others have had good experiences with them but ours wasn't all that hot.
Really? that*****s. But Ive seen a few cars rich there painted and they came out lookin pretty F'n good. In fact he had a car on the cover of "street&custom rodding" (a custom rodder spinoff) not too long ago... -J.
Byers I think is the guys name in Auburn, next door to where the old Hot Rod Enterprises was. I never used them but they do a lot of hotrods and customs there. I have seen their shop and their work is top notch. TZ
Alan(kustombuick)on here works for a body shop in Kent.PM him to find out.They do some kustom cars there.Boones might know too. Shitty deal bought your car.The stonion should have been checkin his load.So are you gonna tell us who the transport company was.That way nobody on here will use em. Good luck bro.......Shiny
Hey Shiny. No worries for any PNW guys on the transporter company. They are an operation called Allegheny Trucking Services out of podunk NY. Pretty small (50 trucks).
Sam's autobody in Vancouver WA. It's a trip for you, but he is a long time Slow Pok and does great work.
jkustom & 60's Style: Drove over to the west Seattle shop(s). There are two right on top of each other. One on corner is Knock out. Next one is Quality auto rebuild. Literally 1 foor away from each other. Any idea which does the good work?
mytlo56, I'm thinking it was Quality? but it was a while ago.. you might want to talk to a couple shops and look at some of their work. Paul
yeah your're right anthony, I didnt even think about that. I'd talk to both of them and see what they can do for ya... But i think it is the one towards the middle of the block, not the one on the corner, but dont quote me.... -J.
Byers in Auburn is top notch, I got to know them a bit when I worked next door at Hot Rod Enterprises for a short stint a few years ago.. Thry have a great rep... $$$$ tho.......
if the shipping outfit is paying for the repairs there is no reason to pinch pennies! talk about top notch work for top dollar Hot Rod Enterprises produces some truly beautiful work! a recomendation from them should not be taken lightly. Hotrodder, do I know you? is your name John? Paul
No I'm not John, I only worked there for 3 months after I had left a long stint with a local wood stove company, and I wasn't sure what I wanted to do.... I worked with Craig and Dale, great, tallented guys...... Craig has opened his own shop, I'm not sure what Dale is doing now........
Byers is backed up until summer on full resto.'s I'm looking into a couple of other places. Boy, it's a real mess to just get someone to work on old iron these days. Sad.
