Avanti frame up restoration?

Jun 18, 2006 2 Replies

Anyone have a lead or recommendation on who in the northwest US could/would take on a frame up restoration of a 63 Avanti R1?



Car will need interior redone & body needs to be stripped & repainted. Engine & drivetrain work fine, but probably needs some minor attention.



I'll need to ship the vehicle out of Alaska, as there's no one local who could take on such a project.



Thanks in advance for any leads or recommendations.


Stand by for sticker shock, Dave Thibeault on the east coast does them for 20-35K. You might get just paint an interior done for 12K or so. At $50-$75 a hour, it adds up in a hurry.
