need paint job

Hey guys, I need to get the old rig painted. Any recommendations on a good shop??? dont need a laquer finish just a good, clean job. No dents just some dings to fix. I would prefer to go down the Nevada side of the mountain.

Thanks, Scott.

Hey Scott, are you looking for an inexpensive paint job or a high quality paint job? I know there are some very good custom shops in the Carson and Reno areas but you will pay for it. If you aren't looking for show quality, I do know a guy who paints autos and trucks for a reasonable price. He has all the equipment and I think he used to work at a shop. I can't guarantee if his work would be great but I'm sure it would look fine from five to ten feet back. He lives at Topaz Lake, Nevada.

I am looking for a good job. Cost around $1000 to $2000 for paint and body work.

Live for it. It was an embarrassing summer last year as I was soooo busy with my house remodel. Can't believe I spent all that money to the State of Cali and only went fishing probably 5 times. Hopefully I will be done, or at least caught up on the house so I can get some time in on the water this summer.
I'm trying to get the day off on opening day for Topaz on New Years Day. Thinking about setting up camp with campers and friends on the beach. (if not burried in snow). I mostly do stream fishing but lakes are fun too as I can enjoy a few beers!

There was a time, back in the day, when I would have taken that as a challenge and proceeded to make sure I skunked the one with the implication. However, I have become rusty. I may have to concede to being skunked, but I don't mind getting skunked. It's all good when fishin'
