Decided to farm out some body/paint work on the Cuda, and need a reputable shop in Indiana (Northwest) or Illinois. I was going to call Boone County Auto in Belividere as Ive seen their work, but they are almost 2 hrs from me. Anyone else know of any other shops and or people?

Have you tried to contact these guys. Call and ask for Mark http://www.bluestarperformance.com/They are a reputable MOPAR shop that does quality work and they are a member of this board. They are not far from Chicago and can do whatever you need done, from just bodywork and paint to full restorations.  Scott

Well i think it said in their "About us" that they wont give a price until its striped of paint to see whats going to be involved. I believe thats what most good shops are going to say,
My car was a stripped and blasted shell at the time. I'm only 2-3 miles away from Rt.66 Motorsports.
But again I havent had anything done by them. But I would recomend with any shop you consider you should talk to previous customers...good or bad
Scott
So they wouldn't give you a quote, even with it striped
