I'm thinking they are making faster money
through the insurance companies on claims.

Its like this restoration work does not keep the doors open and the bodyman working 12 months a year. Insurance is in and out and the bread and butter of the shop and bodyman. The only concerns that I would have is that they leave the car in bare metal, car gets damaged or parts go missing. The quality of work is first on my list, yes it sucks that you have to wait.

Sure thing! I have a lot of updating to do. Been without a laptop for a while and hard to get pics loaded.
