I would also touch base with SW down in Austin @ Elite Motorsports, he might have good connections with some shops in that area for various services. Not to mention he's also just a good guy to know. Austin is only a couple hour drive south of you and is a super nice town.

American Body Works is doing some good stuff in the Dallas area. One guy is a member on here and they just fired his Turbo C10 project "American Dream"

Shop:
http://www.americanbody-works.com/

The C10 thread (needs updating badly but he's actively updating on IG and Fbook).

The monkeys make me ill, I stopped watching.

Depends on what you want done and your budget and timeline.
Rodney's got a nice place, did want I wanted done. I posted pictures of my car from the time it started at his place to when it went home on his site:
http://www.rodscarcraft.com/customer...rracuda?page=1

He does more mechanical, has someone really good he works with for engines, and has people come in to do specialty tasks like interior and glass. I did all the disassembly and am doing assembly now. Just had them do some of the mods to the body, body work, and the paint. They are a small shop and work progresses slowly, but I had no issues.

Another vote for Rods Car Craft, very happy with the body work he did for me.
