Need help with the restoration of a black 1974 2.0. Body work and paint needed. Interior not too bad but also needs restored. Bought from owner of 44 years but condition a bit worse than disclosed. Have a red one already done but shop which did work is unavailable.

Any suggestions? Don't mind shipping vehicle if needed.

Tried the usually recommended small shops in Virginia but they are too busy with a 2 year backlog. Don't want to wait quite that long.

Thanks in advance.

The trip to and from the restorer is the cheapest and easiest part of the restoration, so I wouldn't limit your self to someone close.

Not sure if Chris at Tangerine is taking on projects like this, but he would be good if he is.

This question also depends on budget. That can open or close doors quickly.
