Need rust repair done in NOVA

[buguhrich]

I just got done finishing an auto to manual swap over the summer. As many of you know, the automatic transmission is longer and therefor mounts up further back on the rail than the manual does. Turns out the part of the floorboard where the manual mounts up is all rusted on the passenger side. At this point I'm pretty sure I need a new floorboard but if anybody has an easier/cheaper way of fixing it, I will definitely consider it.

So here's my question: Does anybody know where I can get this problem fixed near Fairfax, VA? The car is currently in Sterling. I called a shop out there, Sterling Hot Rods, and they said they can't work on it for another couple of weeks. I'd rather not wait that long if I can avoid it, seeing as I've already waited 3 months for another shop, RRT racing, to put new brake lines in the rear.

There is a place in Chantilly called Chantilly Auto Body (shocking). It's located on Stonecroft Boulevard just a mile or so south of the Rt50 and Rt28 interchange. I haven't used them, but it's a pretty big place and they might be able to fit you in.

Awesome, thanks for the suggestions. Turns out if you bother these places enough they will eventually notice you. The hot rod place is taking it in on Tuesday.

I'll keep those other places in mind for future reference. There's some rust in the battery tray (surprised?) that I'm looking at getting fixed in the near future.
