Can't recommend the place I took it to enough. Conservative Auto Body in San Diego. Phil Sanchez. He's having a hard time turning a profit so prices might go up from here but he is very skilled and very trustworthy.
Thanks. I値l check them out since they are only a few miles away from me. Sounds like they did all the reassembly on the car.

I値l be honest I was strongly considering sending my TA to be painted in Mexico but it scares the **** out of me. They do have legit guys down there if you research first.

I壇 only consider doing that if I was from Mexico and knew my way around. Too risky I知 thinking, body shops here north of the border are hard enough to trust already.

I have a buddy who is getting an old Bronco done in Columbia...he flys down there every couple months to check on progress. It's taken a lot longer than he thought it would but supposedly the work is very good and inexpensive. I'm too risk averse for that sort of deal
