Body shops? Anyone in the area able to recommend or even able to do it themselves? I've got a friend with a charger project looking to have mostly metal work done to it and the guys he was going to go with (specializing in chargers/general lee replicas) are booked for quite a long time...
So, opinions on places to go? You good with bodywork yourself?
Help a fellow Northwesterner out, people.

What about in the Everett/Lynnwood/Edmonds/MLT/Shoreline area? My Mom got rear ended in her '05 Envoy yesterday and needs a few places for estimates and eventual repair.

For restoration work - D&L Restoration. They have done 4 cars for me. Currently they are in the process of restoring my '67 RS SS396 Camaro.

I am also interested in finding a place to do custom sheetmetal work, so if you find a good place, let me know!
