Castaneda's Body Shop - Chicago Great Guys!

[turbocliff]

Just wanted to say I just picked up my White T from Castaneda's Body Shop in Chicago, and they did an EXCELLENT job on my T. I can no longer call it my "Beater T" as it is now more brilliant than ever! They turned the car around in 2 weeks as promised, and it needed a fair share of body work done to it. Gilberto (the owner) took care of me and the car from start to finsh, and I am nothing but please with the process and the outcome. I highly recommend them to anyone in the buick community. They had just finished another GN before my car and it looked absolutely MINT.

The trim that is missing is my fault as I did not provide for them to install, and am getting ready to start putting her back together now, but wanted to express my thanks to Gilberto and his guys and share a couple pics before I get started-

If you need body work / paint done give them a call:

Wow! 2 weeks turn around for a body shop, that should be recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records....It looks great Cliff, Regals look good in white. Looks like it went on the Jenny Craig weight loss plan as well.

2 Weeks??!! Wow looks awesome. I want to see it when its all finished with trim. I love the white it looks so clean. My 86 took 4 months but i cant complain its perfect. Now my 87 is in there and its been 2 months.

That is G6 Classified, but I'm sure if you show him the car, he will take care of you and the cost will be better than fair for the work needed.
