Was going to put this in contractors, but it felt better in the golf cart forum....
J&B Street Rods & Welding, just north of 466A on 27/441. In same complex as Yesteryear Karts.
Bill is his name, all the times we talked I never learned his last name. I found out later it is Horne. Down to earth, seems like quality person, never trying to up sell me, in fact he told me what things to do ahead of time to save on his labor costs.
In my case to keep costs down, I did all of 'grunt work', i.e., dismantled cart, designed and cut aluminum pieces, clamped up and brought cart chassis to his shop in my friend's pickup. He did a great job and charged me $50 which seemed more than fair to me.
Every time I was there people just stopped by and chit chatted, I wonder how Bill gets work done  . They are working on some very nice vintage cars there.
I heard folks talking about his affiliation with the Villages Car club:

Bill is a great guy and does all the work on my MG TD. He is a Villages resident and a fellow member of the Villages Vintage Car Club.

I highly recommend him
