Somebody who's 70 Duster 340 was and still is their first car is looking to get it restored. They live in PA. Any suggestions to pass on?

I didnt open the link so I dont know where he's located but PA is about a 6 hour trip from one side to the other, so you may want to be specific about which side of PA.

Kohr Customs is a Mopar restorer in Meyerstown PA (20-30 miles from Lancaster). May be worth looking into (I have not seen any of their work, but the owner has nicely responded to several emails of mine).

You couldn't find a nicer guy than Dennis Kohr!!! I've seen numerous car's he did and he is top notch but has a waiting list. Ron

Congrats on the Duster!! You stated you are looking for an "authenic" style restoration. I spent quite a bit of time researching shops before choosing mine because that is exactly what I wanted too. I chose Mike Mancini's shop in Rhode Island, American Muscle Car Restorations and I could not be happier with my experience. He is currently restoring my 1970 Duster. I would highly recommend him to you. He knows his stuff for sure and can give you exactly what you are looking for. His tel. number is 401-267-0055
