Default It's like looking for master of mud

boris_thespider Mike the best bet would be to call B&B and see who they use. Because the car is fiberglass, some body shops think it's a corvettte and hose the crap out of you to do all the work. I brought my car to 3 well know body shops and one was just vettes. The price was from $7,500.00 to $10,000.00. They see cobra and the price jumps double.
2 thoughts Ask B&B for their paint shop and get a price on the fax machine. You will have to ship the car to them unless you have a trailer and let them do their magic. I note before, I hope the fiberglass to totally cured. I know ERA leaves their bodies to sit out in the weather for about 6-9 months. They stack them like fire wood. Sun, snow, rain, 100F temp days and nutty friends.
The other idea is e-mail ERA and ask for who does their cars now. They are about 2 hours from NYC.
Paint job and good body work can make a car worth and look like a MILLION bucks. Same applies the other way. When done with paint job, add 2-3 coats of undercoating or sound deadener spray under fender wells. This will stop stone chip cracks in the body and paint on the outside. Good luck Ps there is a special on TV for $249.00 spray any color Just kidding.
