Well, after 6 months, this project hit a snag. I had taken it to a restorer in a town about 90 miles away....he had said 2-3 months. After 6 months, all he has done is sanding and filling on the front and the cab. He also sprayed primer. I told him about my concerns about 2 weeks ago (mid October). He got really mad, then got really trashy. We had about 25 email exchanges in the last 2 weeks. He said I was thick, called me stupid several times, and then told me to come get my f**** truck. He also called me a liar and denied that he said 2-3 months, that is until I found the email he sent me saying the same thing. He also clearly said he would pay for paint and materials, then ended up charging me for it, holding my truck hostage. Then he threatened to jack the price estimates up. I ended up having to call a couple of lawyers for advice, the Sheriffs Dept, and the JP. I made arrangements and picked it up yesterday. It is now with another restorer in a town about 40 miles away. They pointed out all the flaws in this jokers "work"......his ego is MUCH larger than his "talent". Anyway, hopefully we are on the right path now.
