I'd have to second that. My TR3A was done by a guy whose shop is mostly
repairing rental cars. On the TR he did all the artistic bits himself
and used his usual crew for the grunt work. Gave me a fixed price bid
then proceeded to use a very expensive paint and acheived a quality of
finish much better than I had in mind. Took him 16 months and I doubt
he made minimum wage on the job if he had kept track of the time & expense.
There were specialty shops available but I simply could not afford to
put that much dough into the car... for me this approach gave me all I
wanted and more for a very reasonable price (known in advance).
