Wanted someone to do SWB conversion in Pacific Northwest

Hey any recommendations for a shop to do a short wheel base conversion on my 67 long wheel base.?

I can get the bed shortening done but looking for someone to do the frame, and also do the c-notches and some frame boxing while we are at it. I have a good idea what to do from the forums but I am not equipped.

I'd like someone who has done a ton of these.

Please respond to this post or PM me.

I'm in Vancouver Canada but have asked around up here so thought I'd try Washington State.

Maybe try giving Wes a call at Classic Heartbeat in Olympia. I'd bet he's fairly tuned into the area.

PM Livrat on this board. He may still be doing that type of work.

Didn't realize you were in Canada. Mark (livrat) is pretty far north so would be good to get a hold of him. He does excellent work I've seen numerous things in person. Good luck with the search

Thanks to all of you guys for the leads. I've started talking to livrat about it and maybe in the new year.

Right now I'm swapping the three on the tree back in just for fun. Next is interior clean up and sound deadener, then static drop.
