Kenneth
I am sorry that you are not happy but look at this from my view since you would not let me talk on the phone. You spent 4300.00 with me now lets break this down OK first 300.00 with Autoloc hinges now were down to 4000.00 now let take the windshield which was 500.00 and were down to 3500.00 and lets take the 300.00 for the side glass and were down to 3200.00 and let take the Bear Claw latches out at 100.00 and the install kit for them at 70.00 and were down to 3030.00 and lets take out 500.00 on paint and welding supply's out now were at 2530.00 and now let take out the jeep hinges at 50.00 now were at 2480.00 OK now the chop top and when i price the chop top that was just to chop the top that did not include body work at 600.00 now were down to 1880.00 and then let take out the suicide the door at 600.00 a door and that is no body work now that's come to 1200.00 now were at 680.00 for the body work and that was all that I got for body work. To top it off I did the doors twice because you did not like it only opening at 45 degrees so I redid the doors with out charging you any more so they would swing a full 90 degrees. I did not want to talk about the money but since every body else has; I thought I would. I did not make a killing I am going to send you the last money order back and that will leave me doing the body work for a 180.00 if this doesn't make you happy just call me and ill see what i can do as for with all the other board members that have been talking about me like a dog. I forgive you. To let you guys know how the cab was when I got it, I'll say this much: it was in poor shape. I am not going to start a pissing match with any one. As for the time frame, in August of 02 when Kenneth call me I told him 6 weeks to chop the top and it took him 6 mouths to get it to me by that time I had 3 restoration to do. I explained to him it be a couple of mouths before I could touch it and then he added the suicide doors to the list and then I did them twice. I will admit it took me to long and I am sorry for that. To tell you the truth about the color I did just like you asked. I got 1971 grabber blue code j but you know that any paint jobber can mix it a little diff. than the next one. That's all I am going to replay on this.
