Hello ... starting to look for a shop to do some metal fab work on my car. Trying to find a resonable price, doing a driver quality car.
Any shops in the area that someone can recommend?

I had my 69 Camaro done by Miller Collision Center, Fairborn, Ohio. Jeff Miller owner and all around good guy. He is a car guy and I am very happy with the work.
Hey Neal, & Codie
You know we have a local Chevelle club right here in the Dayton area?
Post your request on our local (TeamChevelle supported page).

Although I have heard the same thing about Millers, expensive but good.

Yeah, I've been looking at your club from a far this past year ... I just moved back to the area last year (grew up here though).
Right now I work in Troy, and commute from Indiana.
I'm just afraid my lifestyle would be too hectic to have any time to devote to a club this year. I'm pretty busy into building a house this year ... and signed up for all HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. QUITE an undertaking!
I have however saved up about $1k that I'm hoping can get some metal work, and epoxy primer on my car with (not hoping on a resto for this price). I've looking at an awesome shop in Covington, and does premier classic/antiques ... and has a heck of a metal fab area. Price is $75/hr though. I'm also looking a place in Richmond that does some classics, and works at $35/hr. Both places are really cool about talking with me, and coming in and looking around ... don't seem to have anything to hide. Figured I'd ask around a bit still though, just in case there's just the awesome place ... that everyone goes to:-)

Hi Neal
I'm also a member of TriState Chevelle. I had my '87 Monte Carlo SS bodywork done by a body shop in Cincinnati.
The painter's contact info is below. I had it stripped due to paint checking that went through the primer. The body work and paint are excellent. I also redid the interior and had the undercarriage treated with POR 15.
I have pics in my image gallery here on Chevelle Tech
If you call, reference Mark's '87 Monte Carlo SS.
