Paint shop recommendation in Alabama?

My '72 911T is close to being ready for paint. Anyone have recommendations for a quality shop in the Montgomery - Birmingham area? Atlanta is a possibility, but it is 2 hrs away.

Give Howard Freeman a shout, I'm sure he can hook you up.

sballard, I was born and raised in Alabama but I live in Georgia now. Unfortunately I can't recommend anyone near you but I can recommend John Holt of Hot Wheels in Marietta. He's worked on every car I own and he has or is currently working on cars for several Pelicans. There are several people that can provide references. He is afflicted with Porsche-itis like the rest of us so it's always good to deal with someone who understands the disease.

There may be someone closer but I would certainly put John on the list for consideration.

Sorry guys. I guess I was too vague with my question. What I intended to ask was "Can anyone recommend someone to paint my car in this area."

That is what I was answering. John runs a paint and body shop.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.

John is currently doing Doyle's car. Here is the thread:

The day has finally come: PAINT and RESTO!

I'd suggest you PM rattlsnak or Doyle (dshep806) for other references.

John also did my non-Pelican buddy's '76.
