Heck, if we can get something worked out, I would love to have ya detail mine. I think I am a few hours away from ya, so I don't know what we can figure out. I definitely want to get something done when this weather breaks. Your stuff is amazing.

if you can be without your car for 1.5 days i can get it done for ya....i work 3 days on then get 3 days off so what i normally do is have the person drop their car off my last night whenever they can during the day and i put about 4-5 hours into and finish it the next day by around 2ish normally.....if this is something that works for you send me a pm and we can see if we can find a date that works out for both of us.

Dang, ya, being two hours away is going to be awfully hard to work it out. My work schedule sucks. The only days I get off are Wednesday every week, then every other Sunday. The only thing I could think of would be to drop it off on a Sunday, and Pick it up on a Tuesday night or Wednesday. I would definitely be looking at sometime in April/May. Even then I would have to get someone to follow me for two hours and back, lol. I don't know, I will think about it. Your work is amazing though, too bad you aren't closer.

My lack of response is due to the extreme jealousy of the people in NW Ohio being able to go to you and not me.

cars are $130....with my work schedule and the schedule with my son i need them for 1 1/2 days....i have my customers drop them off my last night of work on and i finish it by 2 or 3 the next day....i work 3 13 hour days on and 3 days off and i get my son the 3 days off so i try to get as much done after i get off work so i can spend as much time with my son as possible the next day...it usually takes me 7-8 hours for a car depending on how bad it is because i take my time and am very particular so i dont like to rush because the final product isnt as good...let me know and maybe we can work something out.
