Default Se mass painter?

Hey guys, Iv'e posted this across multiple generation forums to see if people have any recommendations. I am looking for a paint shop in SE Mass. that is willing to do some body work, and spray a car (same color). I have brought the car to about a half dozen auto body shops, but they are all too busy with collision work, and that sweet insurance company check that they get.... It's so frustrating. Thanks for any leads/tips.

I have had these guys work on my car, I don't think they do paint, but they can point you in the right direction.

There must be a least a half dozen Corvette clubs in your state. Contact one that is close to you for a suggestion.

Rather than post in different generations, try posting in the Regional section where someone in MA might see it:

Try Second Generation Restoration in Walpole, MA. They specialize in Corvette, build some very nice L88 race car tributes and their paintwork is spectacular.

Give Thomas Auto Body a call, in Hingham. They painted my C3 back in 1999 and the paint is still brand new, no one at shows can believe it's 20 year old paint.
