Are there any worthwhile straighteners left?

I want to get two things done. Who would you recommend (name / contact / location)?

1) The nut that secures the gearbox mount broke, and has to be attached to chassis.
2) The clutch insulator on the firewall needs to be reinforced.

Subscribing to this thread. I have given up with the straightener who has one of my cars that needs to be repaired. It seems that all straighteners want to do now is "1 day wuk". Fast turnover of cars and money.

There's a guy in california who does straightening/painting. He could probably help you out. He did some impressive body work for me earlier this year. The only thing with him is that he takes awhile to get the job done, but the end result is usually exactly what you're expecting, as he stresses on "quality" work. He's been in the business for 20+ yrs so he takes pride in his work.

got a link from pops to check out the mount nut. will review / recommend after i visit.
we just finished correcting the sheit RONS did with a homemade brace (brass plate). should be tougher than OEM.

never knew the clutch in that car could be so high.
