Default Looking for a reputable body/mechanical shop

Hello everyone!

I'm searching for a local (757 area) reputable body shop. I need some work done on a 91 Toyota MR2 Turbo. The vehicle in question has some rough spots, plus it needs body alignment in some areas. Once that's done (if possible), I'll be looking for a mechanical shop to do an engine re-build on the stock (still running) engine. The ultimate goal is to have a reliable/fun vehicle. Not looking at cutting any corners here. Any information available and provided will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

-Jose

Once the suspension is in, I'll be able to move forward with the rest. Looking forward to talking to you guys and perhaps doing business in the near future.

To Lord Humongous, Scotty_Nooo, and OMG_GSR - you guys got jokes! The search button works just fine, so does Google, but the key word here is "reputable" as in reputation. Just because "a" shop comes up on a search or through Google, it does not mean it's a reputable location. I rather get some information from the members/customers here. As far as "lot of red here", not much I can say about that. I'm sure there was a time where I could have possibly have a different status/rating, but times change as you get older. Responsibilities and needs take over the wants. All in all, I have had a good time throughout the years in this site...and intent to continue doing so.
