I am in search of a first quality paint and body shop for a bit of glass and paint repair. I managed to do maybe 1K's worth of body damage last night and only want it repaired by a trustworthy shop who works in a reasonable length of time. Any suggestions?

SHEESH! I thought I heard a mild "OOPS" last night, followed by a very loud "AW $H!T". And THAT'S in Massachusetts! God only knows how loud it was in Florida! What happened Ken?

Wellllllll, I was leaving a new Chili's and had to make a U turn around a divider and hit something slick. Back end came around, I corrected and into a chain link fence. Happened faster then a fart after chips and caso.

Est was done today and I'll have it tomorrow. Damage was not too bad but Infinity is going to replace all the front bright work, grills and all and the lower glass too. The car will be repainted all the way back to the front doors if they can match the paint or the entire car if they can't.

So we shall see. and yes Andy you did hear a distinct "Aw S*it".

A local shop had been recommended who specialize in classics. I'll talk to them tomorrow
