    Painter needed for my roadster

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a painter in the Ann Arbor, MI area?

    TIA, Rod

    Jeff Kleiner immediately jumps to mind; he's in Bloomington IN. Everything I've seen from Jeff has been superb.

    Where in Colorado are you? I know of an excellent painter and have seen his work on several cars at car shows. PM me if you want his info.

    I'm in the Toledo Ohio area and there is a place near that builds FFR's. They use a painter in the Fremont area and another one in Pemberville Ohio. Luckily that's just down the road from me. He does strictly custom work in his own shop. Came highly recommended by others also. He has collectors ship cars for him to paint as far away as Florida. My car goes there next week. Big step in the build. Took a while to find a painter and get on their schedule. Best advice I can give in this process is plan far ahead. The good painters are very busy.
