Posted December 27, 200915 yr comment_304268 Anyone know of any reputable body or restoration places in the southern california area? My search has been fruitless, half the body places Ive come across have been an absolute JOKE either in workmanship or service. I'm looking to do a full body paint job and restore on my 1972 240z. If anybody could do it or recommend a place that theyve had good experiences with please let me know!thanks Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34237-240z-bodyrestore/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
December 29, 200915 yr comment_304533 There is a guy in L.A., his name is Steve Pettersen. Some on this site must know of him, he specializes in doing Zeds.I have been in touch with him and some of his very satisfied customers via e mail, I'll post his e mail when I get home from work.Mark Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34237-240z-bodyrestore/#findComment-304533 Share on other sites More sharing options...

January 4, 201015 yr comment_305075 He does not have a web site but will e mail pics. Hew is very friendly and willing to correspond, unlike most restorers I have talked to.Mark Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34237-240z-bodyrestore/#findComment-305075 Share on other sites More sharing options...

February 2, 201015 yr comment_308263 amen to that. thanks, looking forward to those pictures!Did you by any chance get to see those photos & possibly still have to show/share with me!?I'm in the process of looking into restoring a '71 Datsun 240z which will definitely need a lot of body work & restoration. So I'm looking around for a price quote which i know won't be very nice to hear/see.

February 2, 201015 yr comment_308275 Hi Mexichris, I have some photo's of Steve's work, I beleive he has a body shop guy in the same complex that does the paint, Steve does the rest. One of his customers sent me some photo's of a highly customized Z Steve did for him, he had very high praise for Steve's work. I'll try to remember to put those up on this thread later, in the mean time here are some that Steve himself sent me.
