Finish and paint for my '72 in South Florida
Hello Everyone,
I have finished all the metal work on my '72 couple and looking for a good shop to do the finish work and paint. Any recommendations from Miami, Ft Lauderdale, West Palm etc? thanks

Thomas... Bud's Paint & Body has, as I know it, a stellar reputation. They're a small shop run by the owner. He's not the most personal guy for sure---very to the point. Only downside I'm aware of is they take as long as they want. (Fine with me if it's a world-class job.) You're in Lauderdale and Bud's is in Miami... long hike. Surly there's a great shop closer to you. Is option though. I'm reticent sharing this with you because a paint job is a big deal. I'd hate making a recommendation and it turning out bad---ultimate due diligence is on YOU

Thanks for the tip Karl. I have asked numerous contacts for a recommendation, but I do not know of anyone that has had a paint job here in the last 6-8 years.
I will check out the shop you mention.
