For some reason I don’t think it holds as much weight as one would think. But I’m not a lawyer so I can’t say for sure.
I also have correspondence via text and a letter reiterating the work to be performed and any extras I wanted.

Much better than your word against his if you opt for small claims court. You will also need documentation of your protests over how long the process was taking. The body shop will say you never complained and they assumed there was no urgency to finish. A decent judge will find in your favor since no one expects to wait for 2 years for paint work.
The important part is to get your car first and worry about the money afterward.
