Default Metal fab shop in Atlanta?

Does anyone know of a metal fabrication shop in Atlanta that can roll ribs into a piece of sheet metal?

I have removed the spare tire well in my TR7 project to have clearance for the Jag differential and need some ribs put in the new sheet metal, to add strength, that will cover over the hole that was left.

Sorry, but I don't know of any local metal fabrication shops.

While on the topic of atlanta area shops though, does anyone know of a local shop that can make me some flexible, hydraulic brake lines? Either stainless steel or rubber is fine with me. The brake lines on my '78 cb550 has some cracks in the outer rubber sheathing, and I don't trust the duct tape that the previous owner had applied.

Gimme a few minutes to find the name of the place. I had this company make the clutch line for my 951 a few months ago. They are near Stone Mountain and just off of Stone Mtn. Ind. Blvd. They are very good and prices are resonable.

While we are still on the subject. Does anyone know of a shop that can do some high quality stainless steel weilding for my exhaust in the atlanta area?

What about a local place for ceramic coatings?

Thanks,
John

Johne, for your exhaust work I would only use Robinson Racing. Speak to Harry Robinson, he will definately be able to help you. They are at 770 888 1510. Harry is super cool! He would be able to tell you about the ceramic coatings too.
