I second Neals

They repainted the hood/bumper on my SI- for a fair price- I was pleased with the work

This would have scared the shit out of me years ago…

Perhaps that’s the wrong justification?

I personally will always give my buddy a call before anyone else at Northeast Auto Works. He’s on Essex St. in Albany. Alex (sexys2k) knows him as well.

FYI, here is a thread I started a while ago with some business contact info. I’m not sure why it never got stickied or why no one posts in it to keep it up to date, but here:

No, not when he states hes looking for a CHEAP shop to fix 3 tiny rust spots which isnt the hardest job a bodyman takes on…

Besides, I was just giving advice, I could care less if anyone goes to him lol, just makes him busy and UNABLE to work on my shit… in 3 days he just installed a new motor, changed 3 o2 sensors, replaced fuel pump, evap canister, wired up my lift gate, replaced cat converter, installed new muffler and welded back door frame on my box truck for $1,200… If thats not cheap idk wtf is… And now the truck runs beautifully… Jasper motors in schenectady wanted $2,100 JUST to install a motor lol… My bill would have been well over $6k if they did everything.

That’s fine. Just making a statement that going the cheapest, often is the wrong approach especially with cars.
