trimacar Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Hi Marty...we've already been in touch, but it's 500 miles and at this point that's too far, Pikespeaking wants to be within driving distance in case of questions...it's a car I'd love to do though! Thanks for the kind words....
Guest Bill Miller Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 There's a fellow named Smith who does the trim work for D&D restorations in Covington OH a bit north of Dayton. He did the interior on one of my cars and I was very happy with the result. You might also try calling Terry Kesselring at Antique Auto Restorations in Hebron KY near Cincinnati and ask who he uses.
huptoy Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Cragers is a well known local shop that does excellent work. I had minor repair done on the seats of my 1931 car. They took the seat backs apart and repaired ties inside. They are usually backed up from 2 to 4 months for a complete installation. Crager's Auto Interiors 74 Westpark Road Dayton, OH 45459? (937) 433-2080 Shop is 44 miles north of the Ohio River & about 4 miles east of I-75.<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:PunctuationKerning/> <w:ValidateAgainstSchemas/> <w:SaveIfXMLInvalid>false</w:SaveIfXMLInvalid> <w:IgnoreMixedContent>false</w:IgnoreMixedContent> <w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText>false</w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText> <w:Compatibility> <w:BreakWrappedTables/> <w:SnapToGridInCell/> <w:WrapTextWithPunct/> <w:UseAsianBreakRules/> <w:DontGrowAutofit/> </w:Compatibility> <w:BrowserLevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4</w:BrowserLevel> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:LatentStyles DefLockedState="false" LatentStyleCount="156"> </w:LatentStyles> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if !mso]><object classid="clsid:38481807-CA0E-42D2-BF39-B33AF135CC4D" id=ieooui></object> <style> st1\:*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } </style> <![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 10]> <style> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;} </style> <![endif]-->
old car fan Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 D&D is awsome as well is David I have seen both there work.Drive a bit farther,and get a job well done.Just my 2 cents.
Guest PIKESPEAKING Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 THANKS FOR ALL THE INPUT. I HAVE SPOKEN TO TERRY KESSELRING IN THE RECENT PAST AND WILL FOLLOW UP ON ALL OTHER LEADS. MY EMAILS WITH DAVID COCO HAVE BEEN VERY HELPFUL AND I NEED TO GIVE HIM A CALL. FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN OF HIS WORK I MIGHT BE TEMPTED TO GO THE EXTRA MILE, OR 300 HUNDRED.
