Body shops in New England, Body shops for paint and body work in Rhode Island Options

[griffin-doug]

Anyone have suggestions for body shops in New England, specifically Rhode Island. I have a terrible color on my 914, Cassis, a cross between poop brown and purple. Not pleasing for such a nice car. I am looking to have the flares put on and change the color, looking for someone that is highly recommended.

Your advice is greatly appreciated.

I got the Porsche steel flares at Stoddard's. They were in the Porsche inventory in Atlanta, and they ordered them and then shipped them on to me. Stoddard still shows them on their website.

He had the car from early June 2002 until just before the first snow in early November that same year. I reckon the whole job cost me probably $12000, plus the cost of the flares. And this was a virtually rust-free tub that I had disassembled. He picked it up on a ramp truck, and then delivered it.

I bought the car in 1983 when my company went public. I started buying parts 1997, when there were lots more available than now, and then launched the rebuild in 2002.
