Bob, welcome to the Corvette Forum.

Where in eastern, NC? Is the body already separated from the chassis?

Good luck... GUSTO

There is a Corvette Club here in Wilmington, if that is where you're asking about, and you could contact them about a recommended shop.

Dub is in South Western North Carolina, pretty far from the eastern part, and very near the South Carolina border.

Dub is by the Charlotte airport. He is a great guy and has helped me with several mechanical things, I spoke with him about doing my son's '72 Corvette a few months back and he told me that he was two years out on any new body and paint work. We all know how things can change though. I saw one of his paint jobs this weekend that he did for a guy a few years ago and it is very high quality work. He is a perfectionist. I would encourage you to at least check with him. Give him a call 704-394-5150 and see what his schedule is now. Good luck.
