I don't know him, but my son might. He has had 2 Dodge vintage cars done by a guy in Dallas + had good results; I'll ask him who the guy is that did his work for him.

I just talked to my so, + he's not the guy he uses. His guy is in Terrell + right now is booked solid. My son is picking up one Road runner from him in the next couple of days + will be dropping off another. I'll get you a contact # when it looks like things have slowed down for him, if you're interested. Best, Randy

Thanks Randy. We will ride it out. He's been running 9 months behind at least for now. Just wonder if other restoration customers had issues.

I'd be willing to bet that anyone who does good, reasonable work will have somewhat of a backlog. I'll get back with you when I know more. BTW, what are you restoring?

And finish the work a year later than they say.

Unfortunately, that's true for a lot of them. I know that I could have never operated that way in my business + expect to stay open. I know it's not a level playing field, or quite the same thing, but in the commercial construction business, there are financial penalties for noncompletion in the time allotted in the contract.

The car is a factory big block 396 1967 Impala 4 door hardtop built as a Supernatural TV show "baby" clone. Rotiserie restoration deal. No trunk assault kit.
I know it is the norm for a delay in many custom shops of all kinds. Double seems to be a constant.
It is still a pain for me since I always try to keep my word and rarely missed doing so for the last 50 years+.

That type of attitude seems to be much more prevalent these days, + the standard response is my pet peeve, Well, that's just the way it is."
