Default BODY WORK

Anyone know a good body shop near NYC who is familiar with 997's? I need to have some earlier bodywork by PO redone. Close familiarity with 997 essential.

Pretty far from NYC, but Jim Newton's shop on Route 10 in Canton, CT has got to do the best Porsche work anywhere, hands down. I've had work done there before, as had my brother. Jim's done a couple of cars that have won the Manhattan Trophy.

Good luck!!

I know Jim and agree he does amazing work. But mine is not a show car, nor a 356 Carrera 2 or Speedster. I need more of a good dealer / Brumos quality shop. Manhattan Motorcars isn't it.

Give Paul from Protosport a call at 973-839-5353. It's located in Pompton Plains, NJ (about 1/2 hour from NYC). He's worked on my 911 and will be working on my 997S in a few days. Feel free to mention my name.
