I'd like to say email me at service@Willcoxcorvette.com... but we got hit by lightening yesterday and we're having email issues.

But there is a guy in Nashville named Roger Jones... He's a country as they come but does an awesome job. I just logged into my office and pulled his info....

7709 Old Nashville Road
Fairview Tn, 37062

His phone number is (and I've not talked to him personally in a few years so hopefully the numbers are good) 615-799-9807... His cell is (or was) 615-289-5286.

He's in Fairview... and I'll tell you... he painted my 62 on an exchange deal where we did a frame for him... the car is awesome and the paint on it is over 15 years old..

Hope this helps and as with any suggestion, I'd warn you to check out other items any shop has done before hiring them... get other examples before you let someone paint for you.... When I had my body shop years ago, we used to say that when you mess with a guys carb or paint their car you marry them for life... So what ever shop you use, research them.

Roger used to paint out of a garage behind his house with a down draft booth, but again it was 15 years ago since he did my 62. While I've known him since the 80's and he's been a good friend, neither one of us are spring chickens now days... but you might want to check him out.

Roger is the bomb... He's an old school guy..... it was so funny, I had him on the phone when I was typing my reply to you. He'll take care of you and while he works out of a garage behind his house, he's (AND this is just my humble opinion) top shelf.

Like I said, I bought my 62 in 1980 and I trusted him to paint it....

I love the guy to be honest, he's almost like family to me and you can tell him I told you that.. He's just an outstanding person to me..... So.. I wish you well, and because I'm old... I know things can go wrong, but I highly doubt you'll have any issue out of Roger... he will stand behind is work.
