I would note that around here there might have been more at one time, 
but at present there appears to be exactly one operating.

I had them do the '65 Mustang convertible that's going back together out 
in my garage, and yesterday we stuck a friend's '66 Falcon project car 
on the trailer and carted it up there (just about exactly 100mi from his 
doorstep.)

Prepping and dunking the shell is going to cost right around $1000, add 
the doors, hood, trunklid and other lesser bits and the tab for the 
stripping will end up around $1600.  Epoxy-priming the result adds 
another $1600.

John.
