Hello everyone.  I have finally saved enough cash to go ahead and have the quarters worked, and the car painted.  I have a 69 Charger, but dont know of any good places near me to have work done to it.  I live in the South Suburbs of Chicago, and most body shops do not do this kind of work - just late model quick turnaround insurance work.  Can anyone recommend a person or shop that can provide good quality service? ANY leads would be extremely appreciated. Thanks as always!

If you can bring it to Michigan I can make it look like Blusmbl 68 Charger shown here at his web site.

that muscle car dealer in Alsip might know of a good place to go to. 

I used Tigers body shop on Lincoln and Addison near Wrigleville to do some work on my 55 chevy when i had a fender bender.  the shop owner is a great guy.
