Classic Auto Body in Berkeley. The brothers (in the "2 guys with the same mother and father" sense, not in the Whodies sense) who own it have a cherry 356 that they enter in Historic races, and a big part of their business is restorations.

I second Bodystyle in San Jose. Cecil Beach (408-436-1616) is the owner and a real Porsche nut. This is more of a restoration place than your run of the mill body shop--there were a few 356s getting full restorations, for example. They did a perfect job respraying the bumper of my last Carrera, and perfection comes with a price, but it's worth it IMHO.
