When it comes to body and paint I obviously want a professional to do it. Do I simply look to a local panel beater who does work for my work (a car dealership) or should I be out on the hunt for someone who specialises in builds? Obviously one will be more costly than the other, but will the difference in job be that vast? How is one to know?

Any recommendations for body repairs and a respray in Melbourne for this car?



Car shows.
Talk to people there, chances are high you will find a number of owners that have done what you are thinking about.
If its local shows, you will learn who the go-to guys are in the area
