cyrus Posted July 26, 2005 Author Share Posted July 26, 2005 anyone? I have been calling around and it seems that the shops do collision damage for newer cars. I am not sure I want my car to end up there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-Dreamer Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Cyrus, Take it to Mach Auto Body in Sacramento and ask for Tony Mach, he's the one who did the body & paint on Dan Judays car.

Second I called Castillo Body Shop and was told that Sergio does not speak english. Then I called another shop that said $6500 minmum... This is tough. Any more ideas?
