shop to do restoration on 145 140-160


My 144 is in northern california and my 164 knows that I don't
have a backup volvo. It's been acting up thinking that I don't
have a choice....

As all of you may or may not know, I bought a not completely
thrashed 145 a while ago. A 145 is actually pretty much my dream
car.


Can anyone suggest anyone in the LA area who could take this
tired shell of a car and fix the obvious rust issues and larger
dents, paint it, replace the glass, bushings balljoints and such,
fix the brakes, rebuilt the transmission and so on?

I don't want some crazy show quality restoration but at the
same time I would like a car I won't have to worry about for a
while beyond the obvious tinkering issues.
