Here the small staff shops that do old cars are not going to be able to do any frame straightening or alignment work underneath the car as they have no such tools. Need a regular body shop to do that, but then those shops are not going to want anything to do with replacing the rear sheetmetal on an old car and repaint it so I suspect this may mean taking the car to two different shops (at least if you lived here that is what you'd be up against).

$52 an hour sounds cheap. Even the addicts/drunks/felons posing as hot rod builders working out of their garage here charge more than that.

The one man guy may be what you want if you can pay him what he needs to do it. Always advise making a trip to see inside their shop if you can. Projects covered is dust and trash cans full of beer cans are a good sign the guy won't get it done.

Get it to a frame shop before anything else to verify what you have to work with.

Have a local Mopar club or someone who knows people? There are painters/body guys here who do super work and they are not in the phone book or have a website or anything. You have to find them by digging/asking around.

I would not pay for an estimate.

If the vibe is not there then wait and pass until the right guy shows up. Someone who is not super interested is not going to do a good job no matter what the $$$ is.
