    I am trying to get a 1965 Buick Riviera off of the ground. The car has been sitting for a while, the car just went into the shop for engine stuff, and should be running strong by tomorrow. Now that the engine has been taken care of, I would like to get the body and interior looking brand new. For those that are knowledgeable, what is a good shop for this type of work? What counts is good work at a great price! The car has minor rust spots, some dents, and would more than likely need to be repainted the original GM color. Could someone point me in the right direction please? An all in one shop would be ideal, but I don't mind going to a different shop for different work.

    Thanks!

    There's always Roy Brizio or Steve Moal; both being costly, but with fantastic results. Unfortunately due to high shop rates and rental costs in the bay area, most will be expensive. You may try Sacramento Vintage Ford for a reference or Bill at All Ford Parts in Campbell for a reference.

    Best of luck.

    My friend has a 65 mustang convertible that was totaled and they did an amazing job. Walt has done the work on both my BMWs and my GMC pickup and the work is always perfect.
