Default Car builders in Northern CA?

I have a buddy that lives around the San Fran area. Can anyone recommend a good custom shop? He has a 67 Galaxie.
Thanks Jeff

There are a cuple up this way in Sacramento Area - Roseville Rod & Custom, Gearhead Garage. Both of these are reputable and have a good reputations. Depeneding on the direction he wanting to go and what kind of $$ he wanting to spend. Gearhead from what I have seen is more inline with the Pro-Touring, really nice cars that you are not afraid to beat on. Everything I have seen from Roseville Rod & Custom have been showcars more than anything. Very nice cars - but something you would probably not want to beat the snot out of. I'm sure there are others - if I think of more I'll chime back in.

Default Galaxy needs work?

At Gearhead Garage, we speak Mopar, Ford & Chevy. Much of our work comes out of the bay area- in fact, I'm an SF transplant myself. Have your guy give us a jingle and we can see if we can be of assistance! Whether it's a Pro-Touring build, a cruiser or a show car, we're set up to do anything a person could need. Check us out on the web @ www.gearheadcars.com

Default Nor Cal shops

I would add Goodies Speed Shop to the list. They do everything from engine builds, to suspensions build to full-on car builds. The Goodies crew is building a ground up pro-tour 69 Camaro that is parked in the showroom right now. Good, knowledge folks. They are located in San Jose. Here is their web site:

Default SF area builders

Jeff,
I'll throw our hat into the ring also, Campbell Auto Restoration (aka CAR).
We are located in Campbell (San Jose) CA and are a 1 stop shop as we can do the whole build in house encluding fab, suspension, brakes, body, paint, etc...
Kevin

Ill vouch for CAR. Mine runs like a raped ape right now, and they have been great with me. They really have some sweet cars. I can also vouch for Jason at Gearhead as well. He's a good guy and a friend, and does a great job. Great guys, and great shops, both of them.
