The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Paint and Body Shop Auto Body/Painter Recommendations in NJ?

I've decided to have my truck painted this Spring and am now trying to locate auto body/painter guys in my area.

If anyone here can recommend anyone in the Central New Jersey area, I sure would appreciate it.

Thanks!

Alan, try Nagys auto body on rt 1 in Edison,northbound. I never had any work done there, but he does a lot of older stuff and seen some of his work, very nice. Even seen one of his jobs in Northern Rodder magazine.

good luck...............Dale

Thanks, Dale.

I forgot about Nagy's! Now that you mention it, I remember seein a really nice 63 Corvette he did sitting in his lot!

I'll definitely check them out.

Alan, I also know a guy who owns a shop in North Plainfield, Auto Rebuilders. Been in business forever. Let me know if you want to shop around and I can introduce you on a personal level.
By the way, do you know the guy[or gal] that has the orange 55,56,57? in Milltown on Clay street, just spotted it the other day.............

I've talked with the guy on Clay with the '55 pickup ... it's not exactly orange though, right? Kind of a coppery-red color? Anyway, it's his daily driver and he's a pretty cool guy.

I'm definitely in the "shop around" mode, Dale. I want to talk with as many painters as possible ... get a complete picture of prices and time frames ... and then make a decision. So, yes - introduce me, please.

This is gonna be a total blast! I want to do 2 colors with a hand-painted pinstripe between ... a deep burgundy/wine on the bottom half of the truck and a 1950s type of cream/pastel yellow on the top half ... maybe a blue pinstripe.

Sounds like a great color combo Alan....My cell number is 684-2281 call me and we can set up a plan to meet and check out the shop in North Plainfield. You know the area code.....Dale
