The name of the place is called Bubba's custom cars. They are located right on Rt.50, you can't miss them since they have about two rows of parking spaces filled with classic project cars. They do good work from what I've seen.

I believe there's a place called Ultimate garage in Rockville,MD too I have heard of the one by the Hooters, I think they worked on a friend Chevelle before. I cant seem to remember the name though.

thanks, i will check them out, my dad and i have a 66 with a 200 straight 6 in it. i was replacing the weather stripping on the windows last week and realized with the new weather stripping they are all unaligned and its not a task i want to take on myself

Not sure how replacing the weatherstripping could alter the windows operation/sealing or location. Have the doors sagged because the door hinges are worn out (or bushings in the hinges which may be able to be replaced) not sure, not a Mustang repair person.

the doors arent sagging, its the rear quarter window, i think its just off track but i dont like messing with windows honestly, especially the crank ones
