K8096 Posted May 17, 2022 Author Posted May 17, 2022 No. The photo is from the late 70s and the shop is full of 1930s classics.
1937hd45 Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 Some place in Florida, big Hemmings advertiser at the time. They marketed a Wonder Bondo if my memory is correct. 1

1935Packard Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 Just Googling around, here's some info that comes up. (I don't know if it's accurate, but it's a responsive search result.) Antique Autos of America, was owned and operated by David Samuels in Largo, Florida. With over fifty employees, Antique Autos of America was one of the premier auto restoration facilities in the United States. Cars restored by Antique Autos included the famed the Frank Lloyd Wright L29 Cord in 1981. The company was so well respected that cars would just show up on trailers to be restored, not even knowing whom the cars belonged to. Southeastern Replicars was a side company of Antique Autos of America. Southeastern Replicars was the replica division of David Samuels company. Michael Akins was the production manager. 3
