The incorrect photos does remind me of a few things. I had a few body men come to look at my car to give me ideas and see if they would be a candidate for the work. I wanted to have the work preformed in my shop and not just send it away to a collision repair shop just to be tucked in a corner, worked on in spare time and held hostage. Well more than one guy suggested I use one of two other bodys I had lying around. You know just switch vin tags. I did not like that idea for more than one reason. I knew iI was going to have to replace lots of sheet metal and spend more money but in the end I wanted as much of the original car as possiable. One guy started talking about fiberglass, I kind of shooed him out of there right away
In the end I found Mike who works with a painter friend of mine. Mike has been working on my car with me for a few years now and we have made some great progress. I would consider him a profectionist and will cut no corners. We have become very good friends and Mike has taught me some very valuable leasons. Most importantly I have been involved in every step of the way!
