Rickd and 85ccx, thanks for the tips. I will not be penny wise and pound foolish. I'm located in the Philadelphia area, but also make home in Scottsdale and NYC, so location of restorer does not matter. Of greater importance to me is that they know the AK's and aluminum. I've got an excellent interior person on both coasts and I'm more interested in the body work and mechanicals/engine. The car is VERY rough and really unsafe at this time. Anymore suggestions out there?????????
