Ok, we have an address. Landover MD is just north and maybe a bit East of Washington D.C.
Ardmore Auto Body
Landover MD

Ask for Stromie "Butch" Ellis. I know him as Stromie but I think the shop people call him Butch so I'd go with Butch when calling. If they are confused Stromie should get it done.
Like I said in IM he has several Vettes, the one I've seen at his home has an absolutely incredible Burgundy or Maroon paint job and is a 1975 (C3). He's done work on my 75 Coupe, painted the door and matched color to the rest of the car perfectly and the pinstripe is dead on and looks great.(Details!) The door caught a rock after he painted it and it scarred down to the fiberglass and there is no evidence of the black paint originally on the door, so I'm fairly sure it was stripped first(although at the time of the paint I didn't know to ask if it was going to be). You can mention that you got his name from me, I don't know if it will affect much, but its worth a shot.
