Never pay till work is done .Money upfront assures that your car will sit. Cars like yours is considered fill in work for shops doin insurance work which really pays the bills.i never had this problem because i can paint but had same deal with upholstery guy, cant tell you how many times i was told to come and get it only to show up to a locked shop or parts that couldnt be found cuz so and so didnt know .on top of waiting, i hope you get what you pay for in a good way.i would show up with a flatbed and take it asap,bring a big friend and a cop if you have to.
