hope you dont have any issues with the next one! and if you find a good one let us know
Hi Steve
Sorry to hear things went sour with the panel shop, you haven't mentioned what you're not happy with?
Great work with the winch, I will follow your example with mine.
Hope you get it all happening soon mate - would be great to get out with you and yours again.

hey mate, we have had a few cars fixed or painted over the years and not one shop has got it right first go. I just don't know were peoples pride in their work has gone and quality control certainly left along time ago! hope you get it sorted.

Yeh thanks guys, im hearing ya !
Yes Murray x100 on the trips, and im not even close to finished exploiting your knowledge of the Glass House MountainsOriginally Posted by Squalo
I have not listed the problems yet because there are so many, and im still finding them ,ive stopped looking for a while to ease the dissapontment, this "waiting" also will allow me to look at things clearer after the emotion has subsided a little, that way when i post the problems, you guys get a better description of what i see and how ill fix it, instead of me just saying everythings f**#ed ! (ha-ha)
Ill need to wash all the crud/dirt that is all over the top of the car , so i can even inspect the paint, then i will take pics and list all the issues, they are not all to do with the paint, other problems have come about from its little "holiday" at the panel shop !
A long road ahead before im out wheeling again im afraid
OK mate well mine isn't going anywhere, so it'll be ready to roll with yours when the day comes. Good luck with getting it all sorted, if there's anything I can help you with just let me know.

Time is never wasted when your wasted all the time

Todd, as im sure you can understand, what usually happens in these situations, there was no "written" agreement describing the expected job quality, how long it would take, and its exact costings, while the problems may be enough to seek some sort of legal advice, in reality, ive been around long enough to realise, it would just waste more of my time and money to chase such matters, not to mention, this path would inevitably halt any progress with the car while legal proceedings continue.
I don't hate the guys at the shop, (well actually im told some don't work there now as of last week), they had all come across as nice people, and i don't soon forget they have helped me a lot, as always there is two sides to every story, the guys probly think nothing is wrong with the workmanship on my car and im just too difficult or too fussy or i don't know what im talking about etc, im not really sure.
I guess from my point of view, i expect any proffessional to have more pride, better methods, work ethics, and a superior eye for paint quality than a non tradesman like myself, i was never after a show car, its a 13yr old 4x4 that will get used as such, but some of the mistakes made, defy common sence ,and are worse than id expect from a first year apprentice !
There is a almost unbelievable other story/s about whats happend at the shop in the ongoing last few months, (not relating directly to my car) its not something for me to go into here, but "this" information, lead me to believe i would be wise to get my car back into my possesion as fast as i could, just incase the pending situation escalated into a unpleasent out come for all.
Understand mate, I would probable take a loss 2 and get the car back
