No trailer, though the car is tagged and runs. I just need to paint around the rear window and put it back in. What are you thinking?

Was wondering how you were going to get the car where the rapair was to take place/how much you could tear it apart ahead of time to evalute and/or save $$ on the repair.

Amen on both of the above posts. You should talk with Scott. Karosserie is known for top notch work, but is not inexpensive...

ScottB does terrific work also, as evidenced by his article in der Vorganger. I figured he was just too far away.
