Need body work done on Long Island NY
Hi, my motor is almost done but I will need some work done to the car befor installing my motor. The car is going from AC to non AC and I have the section of firewall cut from a donor car that I need installed before I install motor. Then afterwards I will need quarters, doorskin, wheel well and some other stuff done. I'm on Long Island NY and would prefer local to here but will travel some for the right place. I was looking for either a dedicated welder to do the panels, everyone says the work will be better quality if I go this route instead of an all in one welder, painter, body guy. I will investigate either or before I commit. My local guy has had me waiting since early this summer and I'm still waiting and trying to be patient. Ohh yeah looking for someone who is does muscle cars and not just new car insurance work.

Allen I'm currently having my car done at a shop called radical rides so far the body work looks good soon to be painted he subed out the patch work and did the plastic there they are currently doing a pro touring car and a 67 chevelle my car has been there about 8 months or so because I didnt have the $8000 at one time to lay out so its taking a little longer than usual so far Im satisfied with the results the end result will be the real test.They also fabricate custom bikes.Located in deer park.I have seen a few cars they have done and they looked good and I'm picky hope it helps.

I know a place on Peninsula Blvd., I never had work done there, but I have seen much of there projects and the work seems completely on the money. I myself did restoration work until 6 years ago. The name of the shop is "Street Side Restoration" and the shop is on the corner right across from Hempstead Harley. The owners name is Bud Urig he is a good guy. Feel free to tell him Lou from Queens, with the 70 Ram Air Formula (Keiths Friend).
Street Side Restoration 444 Peninsula Blvd. Hempstead, NY, 11550 (516) 483-4277
