I need you to finish this thing. I can tell you that's a fact.  |
Its honestly one thing after another. I ask a painter to give me a price. he doesn't even look at it and gives me some ridiculous quote to the tune of 15g. Now it may cost that, but without looking at it is that a normal quote?
Then I have a painter say no problem he can come look at it at my house, his mother lives down the street. After he first claims to lose my #, then he forgets, then 6 months after first contact he actually makes it to the house only because someone else I know knows him and he takes notes etc and..... nothing. Never heard from him.
The first time it goes to the fab shop for the chassis (I was told 2-3 months) I get it back 18 months later. It goes to the garage for fab work again for a what I was told was a few weeks and I get it back about 8-9 months later. Almost nothing from the initial list from day one changed. All the major work was on that first list and then the bill went over what I said I would spend and then stop by more then I want to say. It took months to rack up half the bill, and then in 2 weeks the bill doubled. Weird...
I live in a city with very few cars like this and very few places to bring it to. I know when its done I will be happy but some times the frustration of it all.
