    Orange County, CA painter?

    Hello,

    Any recommendations for a quality painter that knows Porsche's? I'm looking for a good, smooth job, medium price range, reasonable turn around. TIA.

    John Esposito is located in N. Hollywood, and is one of the best body/paint guys around. He has been doing work on Porsches for over 30 years. 818-469-1811. Take a look at this thread where John converted an RS body to ST and from silver to tangerine paint. This car was featured in an article in a UK magazine recently.

    I can think of five within 10 miles of Orange.

    SrfCity....call "Jim East and Son" in Orange at 714-633-3593.

    Great guys, good turn around time, and fair prices.

    Shameless plug

    If you're willing to drive a few miles north, I'm a partner in a restoration/body shop that specializes in early 911's in Van Nuys. My partner has done many E911SR cars. Most recently, a car that Kevin painted was featured in last month's issue of Excellence. We have a shopcam at our website (url below in my signature) if you want to see the various projects underway.
