I'm in Glade Spring, VA. About 2 hrs. southwest of you on I-81. I am about 10 miles east of Abingdon and about 25 miles northeast of Bristol. I can't say that there's any mechanics or bodymen in this area that I would recommend.
I was born in Rocky Mount, Va. just east of Roanoke and have been away for a very long time. My grandparents ( Bernard's ) owned Claytons' Place in Union Hall, Va. which is long gone. I was always impressed with the beauty of the cars in that area and find it hard to believe ya'll can't find a good body or paint shop there. Good luck
Your best bet is gonna be Creech at carolinaautomasters.com... I know a lot of LS2 guys that swear by him... When I finally mod the SS, I'm taking it to him... According to the guys I talk to, he is one of the best on the east coast...
I had alot of work done at Tick Performance in Mount Airy NC and they did good work and were cool guys. Ive heard alot about Creech also. I was curious if there was something around here closer than 2-3 hours away lol.
You could always check the Dynojet and Mustang websites and see who in your area has one. I grew up in Roanoke and "south" of Roanoke in Rocky Mount. I moved out in 89, joined the Navy, got out in 95 and moved to Raleigh NC. I don't have a ringing endorsement for CAM (Creech), I plan to go to Mayhem Motorsports in Cary NC.
