If your area in NS is similar to mine in QC the shops who are the real deal are few and far between and booked a year plus in advance. On top of that even if you could get it in the invoice at the end would be enough to make you croak so I'm betting that you end up doing it yourself. Just keep saying to yourself "we will make this fun somehow" and you will be done before you figure out the somehow! You know you will have a big cheering section here so go for it!

hi Sean,thanks for the words of encouragement.this has been quite a disapointment to say the least.this truck is too good to look this bad.you're right,the good shops are few and far between,even the lousy ones are booked up months ahead of time.the Chevy dealer won't reply to my email,the Ford dealer guy at the body shop said they were 80 cars behind?it's all covids fault they say?i won't count my chickens before they hatch but i did just have a real painter leave here.he drove an hour from New Brunswick along with the paint rep guy,to have a look.he was shocked at what he was looking at.he's just left and he knows what i want and expect,said he'd go home and look at the work load and when he could do it and call me mid-week,so we'll see.he said he had a couple of big projects on the go that he thought might be winding down til winter,so as i say,not going to get my hopes up but we'll see what he says,mid week.better days are coming.take care.Greg
