    Body work / paint in Chicago area

    First time posting but I have used the forum a lot whilst building my car and really appreciate all your tips. I have now almost finished the build on my 818C and am looking for an experienced body worker / painter in the Chicago area. If anyone has a recommendation I’d really appreciate it.

    Also if any new builders (as I was) have any questions I’ll do my best to answer.

    It's only been a couple of hours, but no reply yet. If you post the same question in the Roadster section you will probably get some recommendations in Chicago.

    Jeff Kleiner is in southern Indiana. Not many people have more experience than him. Good luck.

    Go to Royal Coach in Bartlett IL, fantastic painter. Ask for John the owner and see if he will do it.
