Hey Frank, nice meeting you at Carlisle last summer. If you recall I was asking about this subject then too- I'm in the same boat, about ready to finally paint the R/T SE you once owned. I know you mentioned Hodge in South Carolina, I have a brother that now lives about 45 mins from there so that may be an option for me. Seems like everyone in NJ sends their cars out of state, but I really don't want to do that either if I can help it. One place you might want to at least inquire with is Ida Automotive in Morganville NJ. I saw the custom Challenger he built when it appeared at one of the local shows and the paint on it is really nice. Following along to see what else may turn up. You'd think there would be more options in the eastern PA or even southern NJ area, or lower NY state - I saw a shop on facebook that apparently does a lot of Mopars - has a couple of Cudas currently - somewhere along the Hudson River but I forget the name right now. https://www.robidaconcepts.com/custom-vehicleshttp://www.idaautomotive.com/showcarshotrods.html I'm trying to remember how long ago you bought the RT/SE. Seems like 25 years or more. Hopefully we can both find a shop that we can be happy with.
