Default Need help finding a restoration shop in Colorado

Guys, I'm looking for a shop in Colorado , close to the Denver area or anywhere in Colorado really, that can reassemble this car below. Its for a close friend of my Daughter who is also serving in the Army. I would like REAL experience here PLEASE. Could be a full on restoration shop to one of you guys who does it on the side but gets the job done ! Im sure he is looking for estimates and advise but here is what Dave wrote to me :

Mr. Krogh,

I am a fellow pilot in Christy's company. She told me a while back that you restored classic cars and I need some advice. I recently found out that my father has terminal cancer and I'm going to inherit his car collection. My father is a die hard Mopar guy and has spent his entire adulthood restoring Mopars back to factory stock condition. He was in the middle of rebuilding a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S. The way it sits right now, the frame and body have been restored and repainted, the engine, transmission, and front end have all been rebuilt. It basically needs to be reassembled except for some attention to the paint. My father quit working on it several years ago and it has sat in his garage becoming victim to occasional scratch and ding.

My dilemma is that I'm not a Mopar guy. I don't have the passion or the knowledge to restore this car. From a financial standpoint, would it be better to try and sell the car as is or should I pay to have the car finished? If you recommend having it finished, who would you recommend? The closer to Denver, CO, the better. I've researched many places online but they all claim to be the best."

Me, Jon, not being a Mopar guy either, I'm not certain what this car is worth or if its worth paying to have someone finish it. I'm trying to help this young man as best I can. Thanks for your help in advance,

Jon
