Restoration 1976 Fairmont XC

[plaidsaar]

Hi, I have a 1976 Fairmont coupe factory 302 that is in need of restoration.
It is a rolling chassis with the panels behind rear wheels and into the rear end rusted out. Plus, numerous other areas that need attention.
Would really appreciate if anyone can recommend any panel beaters or restoration shops that do a good job and would be willing to undertake such a project.
Doner car for running gear etc. is an unmolested 1978 Fairmont GXL factory 302.
Would like to get the body done and have all of the parts from the GXL refurbished and fitted to the coupe.
I live in central QLD and realise the car would need to be transported possibly interstate to get the job done.
Thanks

Have you got a budget in mind ? The front right hand guard can be used as a repair section over the left rear guard and vice versa. The panel under the rear windscreen are always buggered. What I thought it would cost to restore my coupe ended being well over double but at least you have a donor car............

Personally I wouldn't be sending it inter state.
I'd be wanting to keep an eye on it and check updates of work.
