    Best BIG bodyshop in Chicagoland

    Ok folks,

    My insurance Co has decided to try and fix the mag... if I am going to go through with this, I need to be confident that it can totally and completely repaired to like new quality. The car has 29,200 miles.

    All the mom and pop shops I know around Chicago can't handle this job, it needs to be put on a frame machine and an attempt made to pull it back straight... that means a big shop.

    Anyone know or work in a big body shop in the Chicagoland area?

    Anyone?

    There are pics in this thread of the damage GasGunr totalled but derivable in Dayton, Oh

    Thanks,

    Don

    BC Autobody in Wheaton fixed my Charger, not quite the same but they did have to pull my B-pillar out. Steve is the owner and I am good friends with the painter over there.

    Yes, they are the same ones who fixed my car too. Nothing but the utmost respect for their work. 630 543 7972 Ask for Jim.

    And T, from what I hear, we shouldnt let YOU touch anything mechanical as of late.... unhook the hatch button and now the car wont start. WTF???

    Low! And I never figured it out, after I gave up on it for the night, it was working the next night when I went out to F with it. Checked the battery and everything, nothing loose. I'm a little concerned... But I need it done by RSM.

    Royal Coach in Bartlett. I've been dealing with them for over 20 years. He has three shops (all Royal Coach) also in Addison and St. Charles. The owner, John, works out of Bartlett. He does production work, custom work and restos. I have some friends with Ferraris, Lambos and Bentleys. They, like me, won't go anywhere else. I live over 30 miles from the shop. Need I say more?
