Default Looking for honest bodyshop in the Portland/Vancouver area.

Anyone know of a good one or ones to avoid? I have a couple of vintage driver projects to complete. The guy I had been using for the last 20 years passed away.

Not really a body shop per se but the guy I've been using does all phases of car building, including paint and body. He's about an hour south of Portland.
