[WPTA] Western PA Paint Shop[

[Daryl W. Wagner]

RayI am not in your area, but in Ohio about an hour across the border off of the Ohio Turnpike.I just wanted to give you, my thoughts as a shop ownerPlease keep in mind costs will very on how deep you go.Are you just looking at the outside, no door jambs, not bonnet or boot rain channels or the backside of the bonnet or boot lid?What about the motor compartment?Are there any blisters AT ALL????In my shop, we will not do a scuff and shoot, we only will strip down to bare metal.With materials we would be starting at $15,000$3000 for materials.112 hours at $107 to disassemble / assemble, strip and paint, wet sand and buff for basic outer paint.We only do a base coat / clear cote on the outside
Also keep in mind what rubber seals will need replacing, how are the lamps?
So much to think about!!

I had my TR8 repainted (color change) at JK Auto (412) 653-3902.
Paint today is not cheap.

Can anyone recommend a South Western PA paint shop for a complete repaint?  Looking to bid on a car that needs a complete repaint and want to know what I am getting into before I bid?
