Yea I had this on my Mustang. The shop did mainly semi-tractors for their main business. The owner was into street rods too and turned out some nice work. But it took forever. I had made arrangements with him - aka an appointment months in advance. So I stripped it down before I dropped it off and outside it sat for months as I drove by e v e r y day. . . . When he finally got on it he did a nice job. Frustration ! ! !

The second time I did the same.. Made an appointment and got the car ready and dropped it off. He understood I wanted to get it done quick so I could get going finishing it. It was just a couple of spot fixes and new paint.. Again the car set for a couple of months. Finally I called him and said I would be there on such and such day to pick it up. When I got there it hadn't been touched. He had to dig around to find the trunk stripes even. So back home it came and a couple of guys I worked with at the time did it and it turned out super.
