Neil, I'm hoping to hook up with another distinguished visitor from MD, this weekend.
Charlie will be only a few miles from here. Will this count as a 2 state G2G?

Hey all, Does anyone know of a frame repair place not too far from Geneva? I've got a rust hole in front of the radius arm mount that I need to weld up so I can pass inspection. I might have someone lined up but that's iffy at the moment.
I've got a flux core setup, I just don't trust my welds until I get some decent practice in.

Just did a internet search and there appears to be a place in Stanley called Red's Auto Works and it looks like they do frame repairs. Phone # 585-526-5551. As I mentioned, there is Hawk Collision and Frame Service in Fairport.

Neil, I hadn't though about Reds even though I drive past them every day 
George, is Ronnie's the place on 96 just east of Ovid? I'd rather keep business in the FTE family if I can! I think they had a sign that said frame repair, i was looking for someone closer but if your son works there I'll check it out.
Thanks guys, it just seems like nobody wants to deal with the liability of welding up a frame anymore.

Morning NY, Neil, Steve, Jim, MA crew, Pat, Rob, Chillman and all. 'tis a little damp down here.
Ronnie's BS is the one E of Ovid. I can check for you about repair. Most of his frame work is straightening. I know of a couple of places in Virginia.....but they don't have to deal with the rust. How about a place that works on trailers (big rig style)?
