Thousands of people have retired and moved here over the last 10 years, there has to be some retired body guys that like to keep busy. Also I know there are a lot of Hispanics that do good work and are not over priced, I found and upholstery guy who is fantastic and very reasonable.Quote:

Significant parts of your chassis have been crudely replaced, and the car is very likely distorted to some degree.Quote:

The work you require will not be done properly by some "retired body guy" with a welder and some metal working tools.

In my opinion the car is not "distorted" at all, every gap on the car is nearly perfect. It has the original rockers, doors, engine lid, quarters and probably trunk lid, they all close perfectly. I am not looking for just any retired body guy, I'm looking for referrals from a Porsche guy that has had work done properly and fairly priced from a shop or individual.
