Unanswered: Anyone know painters in Atlanta?

OK, it may come down to me having to get my 71 GT painted someplace else. For those that know my GT was having all of the bodywork and paint done at a Tech School by a woman pal of ours. Anyway, it may end up that she will have all of the bodywork done and I will end up having to get the paintjob done. I cannot complain, there was extensive bodywork needing to be done so at least I have that.

So, is there anyone in the Atlanta area that might have a suggestion to look at for possible painting? I suspect it will just need to be primed and painted? Any suggestions?

Paint job

Sounds like you got a lot of work done for less than jobber price, don't be surprised if the final paint is costly. If I wasn't so covered up right now, I could come and get it. I restored one GT from the Atlanta area, as the shops are not too friendly down there. You might find a guy on the side to do it reasonable

How much are you wanting to spend? I'm not joking, there's a new outfit that has moved into the Atlanta area and are doing a real nice job. At least the one that did my Wagon did a great job.

A friend of mine got his 68 Camaro painted at a place in Gwinnett. I wished that the guy still owned the place cause they did a great job.

There is a place that I trust. Don's Collision in Lawrenceville. The owner has a Pantera.
