I think you are right, and two trips would be the safer option. I have been weighing the pros and cons of each, and putting that against the fact that I am about to lose my place to work on it until a new house/shop is built and "storing" it at the body shop. But I am not uber concerned with a high end show car level paint job when finished, really just more of a clean driver.

Any other recommendations for a shop in the Austin area? I'm not sure that I am quite to the JCG or Hammerfab level. I would really like some first hand experience before I commit to anyone.
