Best of Show in Naperville. They have a website. Just finishing up a 69 RAIV Judge. They repaired/restored a 70 Olds OAI hood for me and it is OUTSTANDING!!!!! I've got some other small things they are going to be doing for me shortly.

I went to Olds Coach Works about a year ago and wasn't too impressed. I took one of my W-31s with me and the guy said I'm looking at AT LEAST 20K to do the car. (I know the body needs a ton of work) He also wanted me to install a hemi in the car. Or a crate chevy. I'm sure they do good "general" work, but I wouldn't take a BOP car there. Or maybe if it was just body panel work/replacement, but full restoration, not a chance.
