Sounds like alot of the Body Shops I have worked in. All I can say be careful who you pick to do your car as it's like Playing Russian Roulette, Pull the Trigger & hope you get Lucky.

Sad but true!

sorry to hear that.  If the guy quoted 6-8 weeks for a resto he was on crack....     we usually take a year to restore a Charger....     the 70 R/T in the shop has been there about 14 months but is getting pretty close to leaving....            but there is no excuse for things not working....                                       

truely i'm sorry to hear this.

well can you help me get her back to the car show circuit?

Yes, can you get it to Michigan and can you wait for me to get setup ? 

Sorry to hear about your adventures, if it's any consolation, there's also good and trustworthy bodymen around...altough i don't know too many.

That is a gem!  The paint does not look at all bad!

Just be glad you pulled it out when you did. 

When a shop starts legally circling the drain, plenty of these guys will start selling everything that isn't bolted down for cash no matter who it really belongs to.  You could have ended up in a legal battle just trying to get your own car back.

I agree. From what you told, I wouldnt be surprised if the guy sold the car

Shame to hear 'bout the fly by night bodyman, however, since the ol' lady don't work, put her to use sanding down the piss poor paint job.   

[chargerman68]

*************Another FRAUD in SAN DIEGO is  Soledad Performance in Lemon Grove.************
The owner of Soledad Performance is Chris Kane and he's a liar, a cheater and does shoddy work.

Stay away from this guy he is a total fraud!! We need to make a list of fraudulent sellers and shops so we can all help each other in avoiding the bad businesses.

Good paint shops in San Diego include:

Jesse Mendez Autobody in El Cajon
Jack White Autobody in Campo

Send me an email and let's talk. I did a restoration on my 70 Charger and I know from personal experience which shops have a good reputation and which ones do not in San Diego.
