Ed Litton did the restoration of my 1974 Mondia Super, and it came out stunning. Frame repair, paint, pinstriping, and decals came to $435. Paint alone was about $250-$300.

Excellent work, excellent communication, very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I couldn't have been more happy. Turn around time was about 3 months, but a lot of that was because it was summer and he went on an extended vacation (told me up front).
