I totally agree with your assessment of the situation. It's a show car shop. I've learned from this.
What gets me is that they repeatedly told me about all the high dollar returning customer cars they've built - as in - "this is the 5th car we've built for this customer". So either they HAD people in the past that knew how to finish a car and they're gone - or the customer NEVER drives them... and when I think about the cars this shop has built... I've never seen ANY of them on the road - and after the "show circuit" you don't see them in the magazines such as GG Gazette so that tells me they're just tucked away in someones collection.
It also shows me to choose better the next time. Next time I will choose a shop that not only builds the cars - but takes them out and beats on 'em just to prove they can move and groove.... Making events like Optima etc even more important in my book.

I think you need to open a shop. One that's different from 99% out there. Does great work, on time, and with the knowledge about how to build these cars for more than just a car show; build them to be driven.
