When I got my westy I evaluated four shops by having each of them do a post-purchase pre-purchase inspection. Yeah, it's backwards. All of the shops were inner eastside - the furthest east being on 82nd ave.

A&P and Precision (132 NE Grand) were tied for the most complete and detailed inspections. Both warranty their work. I'm going to one of the two because it is between my home and workplace.

If you have a conversion Precision would be the more appropriate of the two.

Keep asking and you'll get more opinions. ;)

For body work, I've had Beets on SE Stark do insurance work and the quality is great.
