Yes, "Gerty's" is still in business. I live just a half hour away from
them. In fact, I used to live just 2 blocks from them.
Gerstenslager's does a great deal of sheetmetal stamping for the big
three, but mostly Chrysler. Here's the info you are looking for:
The Gerstenslager Company
- A Worthingto Industries Company
1425 East Bowman Street
Wooster, Ohio 44691
Phone: 330-262-2015
Any other help I can give, just let me know.
Kent
