Default need paint ? (Bay Area)

I should have done this long time ago. Starting Nov of 2008 I am now a partner in my favorite body shop here in the Bay Area. Its called United Auto Collision Center (UACC) in Burlingame Ca. They are the one responsible for the restoration of my yellow 993 (Big Bird) The shop is known for restoring vintage P cars , Ferrari and mostly european. If anyone needs a body shop or paint just send me a PM and I will offer you the Rennlist price. We use only Standox paint made in Germany . Im sure several Rennlist members could attest for the quality and job of this shop.

They also restored BigBird for me 2 years ago deleted the rain gutters and made even my Ruf bumpers fit correctly. They also did Kmy's red Ruf conversion. After me they have 993s to dead science

Congrats on the new acquisition, Alvin.

BTW, your collection upstairs at Moscone this year is looking pretty good. At your rate, you might have to get a hall to yourself down the road. BTW, love the Hartge's on the E30, and don't know if that M coupe is yours, but I have the feeling it is (very tastefully done with LM-R's and Schnitzer exhaust).
