Looking for a good restoration shop in SW Florida

Dear fellow truck owners. I am travelling a lot and hence do not have time to restore my truck by myself. I am looking for a proven good shop around Naples/Ft.Myers area that can do a full project on my truck. I need bodywork (welding not bondo), door replacement, bed parts and timber replacement, electrics, engine and transmission tune-up, frame coating, disk break installation and overall paintjob done (sounds like I need everything). If any of you know an individual or a company who can professionally get it done I would appreciate your help in getting their contact data. Basically, I need my 1969 stepside C-10 to be in "like new" stock condition (only better ).
The truck has rust on top of the cab rails, rear cab corners, floors, fenders. Timber is to be replaced. Doors too.
Please send the contacts in a private message, so that it is not considered advertising. Thanks in advance!
Tim

P.S. It should be "restoration" not "restauration" in the header. Fixed

Try MotherTruckers. Haven't heard from him in a while so I don't know if he is still around. He was very knowledgable on our trucks and even did complete cab restorations. He was great to work with for the parts I got from him (new & used). Try googling him....

Ask big_al_71, I believe he had some work done to his truck down in that area and it's top notch.

Edit: He already posted, there you have it.
