I need a pro
I want to get this widebody back on the road.
It needs a lot of work and I have no idea where to begin.
It needs bodywork and a paint job, interior work, an engine, exhaust and some other things.
Basically I want to tear her down and build her back up my way the problem is I don't have a garage or tools or even the time needed to work on it.
I have a decent chunk of change I want to sink into it now but i know its not enough to completely finish the job.
Anyone have ideas on where I should go and where to start?

I believe its a 83
I'd like to have it painted a metallic black with gold trim and I want a rebuilt 13b turbo dropped in it.
I need to find a place that can get it all done for me for a reasonable price and possible take payments. right now i should have enough saved for the engine, although that should probably come after all the body work and paint (i want the engine bay painted obviously too)
So you know a place that can do it all?

I definitely have a place that you can get it painted, and the body work done.
It should just take a little homework, but you could probably get away with going 13bt if you are interested.
If you want to go over bodywork options, and estimates, let me know... PM me your number, and location, and I'll see what I can do to put you in contact with the right guy.
Best of luck on the restoration...

Well the thing is that I don't want to have to get it towed to 4 different places either.
Does anyone know where I can get this all done at the same place or maybe I could deal with it if I only had to make 2 trips. For instances if the body shop did interior and everything was ready then I could take it to a rotary specialist mechanic to just have the engine dropped in and drive it home. I know there are a bundle of the one stop shop places in CA but i shouldn't have to go all the way across the country just to have this done.
