Any good shops in the area that do not request deed retainers. Close to West Chester a plus.

Paul at Cyntex is very honest and he knows these cars.

Well if you are not too scared to let another Rennlister do it/help you do it, then let me know and I can probably help you out with it. Do you have a garage?

Wow, Dougherty's moved? Shows how long it's been since I've had work done. Anyway, there is also Chris Radbill's in West Chester. 610-701-9401. Also a PCA supporter, advertises in the Reisentoter Region magazine.

I also had some work done by Mike Tillson in Philly. 215-473-6400. A bit pricey, but they do nice work.

Hey Jay I would be honored, plus I put the good stuff out for helpers, just don't let my father in law see it if he pops over. He thinks all I have is Natural Light and Bud 7oz cans. I'll PM you my cell number.

Thank you
P.S. I was just at Doughertys for inspection, when did they move?
