Default Looking for a body shop

Hello,
Wondering if anyone knows of a good shop to do a frame off resto of my 1969 GTO in the Michigan area? I would consider a shop also in either WI or OH? Pics of my car can be seen on the 69gto tech part of this forms under pictures of 69 gtos
Thanks
Jeff

Depending on where you are located in Michigan...

If you're anywhere around the Saginaw area, there is a great place in Shields called Valerio's. They do beautiful work there. They recently took a bunch of awards at the Mopar Nationals in Columbus, OH for a Hemi GTX that they built. I've seen several cars that they've done full frame-off's on, and they turn out great.

Mike

What is the story on the 70 Knaffel GTO? Was that car found or has it always been accounted for and finally restored? That whole story is way interesting.

Spartazoo, the car has pretty well been around the whole time, never lost per say. The current owner bought it from Arlen Vanke, who also built the engine originally and the one thats in it now. If you ever seen the unrestored pics from my site, hard to say that it wasnt the car.
