Gary Mayer came over yesterday to help pull the frame out for the top and I think he was pleasantly surprised by the condition the body is in, but I finally convinced him that yes it does need to be painted. I'll give Dave a call this week about bringing the car over for an estimate.
I had my MGA painted and some body work done by F-40 Motors in Portland. It was an insurance job so I have no idea of the cost. The car still looks good after 16 years of service.
