Default Frame Restoration shops

Hey guys, I have an 06 CC 2500hd. Has some rust and a rotted bed. Found a guy that will sandblast (copper) the rear frame and under the cab for decent to bare metal and he has a guy that can coat the whole frame. Supposedly does all of Peterbilts frames. But trying to see if there are any good body shops that will paint this truck and do rust repair that's needed. Buying a southern bed. Nothing crazy but I want a real paint job that doesn't cut corners. I'm in Columbia Maryland but will drive for good body and paint work. No offense, but I don't want a cheap Maaco type paint job. Like actually take lights out, do the jams, and just paint it to last. Looking for a dark candy blue. Like The CTSV or Coyote blue. Appreciate any help.

Truck color in the pic, is arrival blue and under low light conditions. In daylight it POPS

Your better off stripping the truck and getting the frame sandblasted and powder coated for about $500, that’s what I will be doing this winter

Same color but in daylight, you can really see the pearl in the cab and top of the bed rails FWIW
