Eastern NC is a pretty big place any way to narrow that down a bit?

I think I have a guy in Winston Salem.. I'll have to see if I still have the nuimber somewhere.. He supposedly is the guy to use on the east coast, but I DID NOT use him because he wanted $12000 to paint my 57. I'll look...

Are you looking for a driver paint job, or show quality?

I've heard of the guy in Winston, but it sounds like he's high dollar. There's another guy in Wilmington, but he only does high quality, concourse paint jobs and his waiting list is about 2-3 years deep.

I am interested in hearing about some shops too because I'll be on the hunt for a painter sometime this year. I hope...

This guy does incredible work and he is very honest. He is excellent with fiberglass.

I know my friend Jeff has used a guy right there off of Berkley in Goldsboro. The guy has done mostly hoods and hardtops for Jeff but the work is good..

I was going to use a guy here in Clayton/Selma area by the name of Gary Long @ 919 271 6970 however after talking to a few people I have rethought that. Gary does almost exclusively Corvettes though but he's not cheap nor fast from what I've seen. The place that I mentioned in Goldsboro does a lot of Mustang work but everything I've seen is QUALITY. If you've lived in Goldsboro long you know where the hardware store is off of Berkley that recently had a car come thru the roof.. The body shop is in that general location. Dave
