T/A Specialties Florida
« on: January 24, 2016, 08:40:44 PM »
Just got back from vacation in Florida and while we were there we went on down to T/A Specialties Florida. We met with owner Rick Deiters. He showed us all of his restorations and collectibles. He has some FANTASTIC T/As, ei the 1st 1976 Black Anniversary that was used by Pontiac to preview as the '77 S/E by changing the hood and nose. He also has one of Burt's 77 T/As. They do some beautiful work. We had a great time meeting him and looking at  their work and cars. Super guy!!

Did you happen to discuss who paints their cars; do they farm it out or do it in house.

I believe they are painting themselves in a different building. They were doing body work were we were at and had a few finished cars there along with the 2 very special cars by the office.

Just completed the purchase of a '77 T/A from them myself! Rick is a top guy to deal with. My car is being shipped to me after this weekend and should arrive in Ireland in about a month! Can't wait  ;D
