Looking for a paint and body shop...

Yes, that was for the entire car repainted. And as for posting up pics, I plan to. Unfortunately, it's going to be a while since my job situation or lack thereof is preventing me from being able to save up money as fast as I'd like.

He quoted me $1500 for paint and rust repair (putting in new rockers, quarter panels). Might be worth giving him a call, get a ballpark price.

I don't think he has a web site so per his card:
JR
1350 Olive St.
Lakeland, FL 33815
863-899-9602

I may have to call this guy about my Landcruiser.

Need to have some rust cut and patched (welded no bondo) and a repaint.

Would be worth the drive.

Wonder how long it'd take him? I could just drive it over, drop it off, and crash with Ken and Carrie for a week or so

Seriously though, might give him a call.

Thanks for the info.

I know seems tempting, after I refresh the engine/transmission in the Falcon. I will very well look into getting the Falcon repainted in the winter. I don't expect show quality, but would like a nice paint job.

Just as an update, the address I listed isn't good anymore as he has changed shops. Phone number is still good, so you can call him for further details. I was up at the shop today, and guess what I found




It's an 87 getting a C5ish conversion. Works looking pretty good so far.
