Can anybody recommend a panel shop in Perth with a chassis aligner that will check and adjust my Capri.  I have found a few but as soon as I say 1972 non insurance it's a quick no.  North or south I dont care.

Any idea why they are refusing?

One has said he is too busy with insurance work to do a small job like this.
One said they only work on modern cars.
One said he was worried that he might do more damage that would be costly for him to repair.  He said that there may be some rust somewhere that might let go under the tension.
 
I think the industry is mosty remove and replace for insurance jobs so it's hard to find places interested in private resto's, and the ones that do resto's want the big bucks for the whole panel and paint job.  I just want it straightened and will do the rest myself.  Not a major crash, just past owner repairs not done right.
