Re: Need a good metal man

They are hard to find. The insurance companies control most auto body shops and they put a ton of pressure on the shops not to accept work like yours. Their aim is to get the vehicle totaled and sent to scrap.

Competent, reliable body metal repair techs command a premium price. I recommend contacting car clubs in your area for recommendations both good and bad.
Hopefully you will get lucky but, if not, expect a lot of leg work.

Are you expecting to have to replace the roof?
