[QUOTE="Robert871, post: 1712207, member: 10963"] Our major problem with the price was that they lied to us on every occasion. You can harp foam your experience that this is ou fault and that everyone that has ventured into restoring a classic knows it takes twice the time and money in the end. Iregarsless. I proclaim that it's utter v/s that they low ball you to get it in the shop. Rip it to pieces to keep ot there, and then haze you on prices, burning through the money and more in no time with minimal noticeable change to the car; the whole time telling us " the car is in great condition and has no real rust concerns" also noted that we had all the parts already. The fact is from a 20k quote when we started, its looking to end up being about 38k. And with the way the car looks I think we can be at piece with that. But we will not forgive the fact that the car was to be completed before thanksgiving, and they have pushes our car aside to make every extra side job they could before ours. And they went multiple months with no real work done to the car. And the fact that they have lied to us every step of the way about how long before they do anything. And they never tell us before time when something is holding them up... The latest example: the graphic lettering on the x stripe requires a stencle to be made by a 3rd party for them to use on the car. Their guy they use has supposedly dripped the ball an this is why they have not touched the car for yet another month. And guess what. Less than an hour on the phone after I found out they had an issue, and I found a guy ready to turn out the stencle they need next day..... This is an enexcusable failure as a businessman on the shop owners part. [/QUOTE]
