Jon,

I am also in Huntsville, AL.

David Allen Body Shop did some great work for me many years ago but I don't
know if he still has the same painter. And the key is the painter more than
the shop.

Then there's Maaco who is famous for their el-cheapo paint jobs but the
truth is they will do whatever you are willing to pay for & they can do
quality work.

The real cost is not in the paint, but in the prep. A proper paint job with
prep can easily cross $2000. And most of these guys will not paint over
sprayed on primer because they don't know what the primer is made of, so
check with the shop you want to use first before doing anything to the body.

Thanks, Tom Hargrave
