Local-ish shop for paintwork, etc.

Hi All,

At the last lunch I mentioned that I was looking at buying a Europa.

I found one for sale that is in my range however when the current
owner had it painted last year, he didn't have any of the pinstriping
put on nor any of the badges.

I assume the badges probably need some holes re-drilled through the
fiberglass, and I'm very leery of doing this myself and messing it
up. Plus I'd like to have the pinstriping done if that is possible.

If someone can recommend an Oregon place that would probably be
willing to do this work I'd appreciate some recommendations!

Thanks,
Scott

I would suggest McClinton Auto Collision in Albany. They specialize in British cars and are easy to find. They are right behind Power Honda off of highway 20 as you leave Albany.                             Jim Pott --- On Fri, 3/18/11, Scott Linn <kar...@gmail.com> wrote:

I agree with Jim.  McClinton painted my MG and did an excellent job.  They love British cars and are good to work with.

Great, thanks for the paint shop recommendation.  It seems unanimous so far!

It turns out that the Europa pinstriping is tape (I thought it was painted on), so I might actually try that myself...  We'll see.

I'll be buying the Europa...  Anyone got some spare garage space for rent?  I've already got 3 cars in my 2-car garage!
