Wayne-You truly have the patience of a saint. I hope he makes it happen soon, there is no excuse for the amount of time you have waited.

Wayne, hang in there buddy. I know it's easier said than done.
I hope you get your car soon.

Been there Wayne and it is a strain on everyone around you. It's better sitting in your garage, working on it at your convenience rather than getting your hopes up for unfulfilled promises for one excuse after another. It was an absolute miserable time in my life and I feel for you. It will be nice once you get it back but no matter how nice the work is on it, it's not worth the mental agony you're going through at present time. I personally will never farm out paint work again. You have been a trooper and I commend you for it. One day we will get to drive

I have learned alot just here on these forums.

When it comes to building a car or having one painted, it will not be more than an hour drive away. Cause if im not happy about what is going on, I will be there to pick it up.

Those are absolutely words of wisdom. I am 2000 mi away and 14 months into my body fab and paint deal. I have no doubt my guy or Mike do awesome work, but the delays, lack of timely updates, inability to enjoy the journey - not to mention warranty issues - all make it a losing proposition.

Hang in there Wayne. We're all pulling for you!

Yep, my first fiasco was about 4 hrs away, and it still was too far.

I'm not saying people intentionally put long-distance customers' projects on the side or back burner, but let's be honest... it sure makes it really easy to.

Either way, it's gotta be getting closer to the end for ya Wayne! Almost there!
