Fab work in LA/OC

Hey all, hoping somebody here might know of somebody who does good fabrication work in the LA or OC or surrounding areas. I have a '46 truck that I want to drop a SBF and C4 and Explorer rear into. My welding skills are limited, hence my post. I know I can find a shop, but I don't have the $ to pay $100+ an hour labor, I'm trying to get this truck on the road on a budget, so just hoping somebody might know somebody who had experience with swaps. The truck is in Orange, can either be worked on there, or I can trailer it. Thanks all
