    Body/paint shop recommendation

    Hey all, new member looking for recommendations on a paint and body shop in the Milwaukee area. I actually am restoring a 1974 TVR 2500M. It uses a fiberglass body so I figured this would be a good place to ask around for a shop that has specific knowledge of repairing a painting a fiberglass car. Looking to avoid long term issues with shrinkage, ghosting, etc. Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Good morning. I used Nostalgic Auto in Island Lake IL. Erik is the main guy there and they do amazing work. It is a small shop and may take some time to get in and then done but he does all types of body work. I know this is not Milwaukee but Northern IL and maybe close enough for you to check out?
