    Hello
    I am looking for a metal/panel shop for a 356 preferably in the North East, but I am willing to ship or deliver.

    Contact Ed Butler in Lansdale, PA. Ed was Bruce Baker's right hand-man for over thirty years before he retired. Ed is doing his own thing now....he's very selective on the projects he works on. He's done body and paint work on my SWB 911 as well as my 914. Send me a PM for his contact info.

    Thanks for all the great tips and recommendations.
    I ain't as young as I once was, so I am weighing a shops Quality/Knowledge vs. cost vs. timing/schedule.
    Interestingly some shops have mentioned a shrinkage in their lead times which echoes the thread in the General section on parts costs dropping
