My 68 torino needs a makeover. In the 37 years I have owned it---I have caked 2 layers of paint on top of its original. The car has never rusted ---nor does it have rust issues to deal with. It does need some tweaking of body lines and gaps...but shouldnt be too difficult. Does anyone have recommendations for a shop in the minn/wisc area for me. I have tried the "try this guy" route in the past and have been burned. I am not looking for cheap...I am not looking to break the bank though either. I am looking for quality and a shop that are not filled with crooks. Any advice is appreciated.

i'd ask streetrod guys who they recommend? and find a shop that specializes in restorations... no joe blows body shop that just wants to do whiz bang insurance work and kick it out the door!
