Title: 59 single cab ...smoked on the front corner...looking for body shop
Post by: pete-stevers on November 24, 2015, 05:12:51 PM
So my rough stuff Vw truck got smoked a while back on the front corner, frame damage and pullled the front end about a half inch on the other side...
I don not want paint work done, I can do it myself,
just steel work, and i have a spare single cab for parts
your ideas are most welcome
this is not a show truck... I used it as a truck.. function over beauty

Most dudes just work on their own stuff I think? Tweaked frame part is going to narrow your search a bunch...

I have to agree with Josh, definitely the lack of response is the tweaked frame.
Get that frame straightened and then no problem, there are quite a few of us that can do the rest of the metal work :)

I think Barry is out of the vintage VW game.
