[urq] Urq paint job update

[Mike Sylvester]

Unfortunately, no autobody shops want to deal with restoration work.
I brought my car to a guy last October and took it back in March when
he had not even touched the car except where his plow contacted the rear
quarter panel.
I brought it to another guy who has done a lot of work on the car, but he
has stalled over the summer.

There is no chance that my car will be ready for UPG this year, hopefully
next year.

There is none. It was promised to me by May 17th, then by the end of June so
I could show it to Dean Treadway at LRP July 4th weekend, not I told him I
need it by August 14th for UPG. As of now, I have paid for the paint
stripping ($1100), materials ($500) and some labor($300). I may have to go
get it and drag it out of his shop the way it sits and demand the $800 back
that I have given to the body shop. Does this sound fair to you guys? How to
I get him to get it done by the date HE promised it? I'm worried it will be
in there too long and parts will be lost or broken.He KNOWS about the UPG
meet on 8-27, and has said he will have it ready, but I am etremely doubtful
and even more disappointed! I told him I was getting frustrated and I don't
want to explode on him, and all he can say is "I f****d up!"

Any advice??
