Quality Shop in OKC area (includes DFW)

Post by tod-hog »

I am considering bagging my 67 SWB and some other upgrades such as a T5 install and Power Disc brakes. I want these mods but the learning curve for the inexperienced adds time which I have none. The only solution I see is to hire a shop to do this. I'm aware that this is more expensive but I can live with that provided the work is quality.

I don't know of any shops in the area that specialize in these types of mods and certainly not Ford trucks of our vintage. Any suggestions or referrals from any you out there?

Hey Tod! How's it goin'? Is that the truck you had when I was there or is it a new one? Sharp looking!
There's a car shop up here in Moore that does alot of custom work on old classics. They seem to always have old Mustangs, Chevelles, Novas, etc. in the parking lot. But I'm not sure if they bag old Ford trucks. I'll drive by there tomorrow and try to get a name and # for you.
