    I want to have my Merak repainted and was wondering if anyone has any experience with paint shops in the Austin area. Any info appreciated.

    Have used many of them including Berli's, but for my money the best paint and body shop in town is Precision Auto Body on Lyons Road in Austin. Ask for Rey Hernandez, the owner. It is a small shop that does both regular production and very high dollar cars. I recommended Precision for some paint touch up work needed on a 100 point Mercedes Gullwing that Berli's wouldn't touch. Rey did the work and the owner was very, very pleased. I should add that I restore Ferrari's for my own collection so I know quality paint and body when I see it.

    Best of luck. Feel free to tell him that Kevin sent you. Be sure and have him work up a number of sprayed panels for you to look at in various light conditions. It's incredible how many variations of the same color auto makers used, and they can look quite different depending on the light. Are you redoing the interior also?

    Yes, I use the Leatherique products too with great success. George has been most helpful over the years. I believe in his products. Your carb rebuild looks fantastic. Great work!
