Doing a frame off restoration on a 1950 Chevy truck, and I am having hell with the guy that suppose to do the work. With out going into the details, I am looking at the possibility of loading everything up and taking it to someone else to put it all back together.

Does anyone know of a good shop in Houston?

I have posted pictures before of it, and can do again if anyone is interested.

Pretty sure I gave a recommendation last time. If not, Lakewood Car Clinic on Louetta near 249. I worked there, have known the owner my whole life, and they've done several 50's era Chevy trucks.

Awesome! Old gauges are one of my favorite parts about vintage cars for some reason.

I took it out east on i10 to a place called FadedLoveGarage. He was recommended by someone on the Outdoor board, and so far it has been a great experience.

Looking good! Congrats on finding a shop to work on it for you. We finished a maroon and black one about a month ago.
