Finally Have Paint on my 65 Dart Vert

The info in my post was just on the last two shops (both in Lake Elsinore). My car never made it into either of the first two I had scheduled.
* I had the first shop (Whittier) buy the paint before the LA County waterborne paint only law went into effect. Then he closed shop and disappeared with my paint.
* The second shop (Indio) was scheduled to receive my Dart and begin work. Then he closed up shop unannounced and moved to Arizona two weeks before I was scheduled to take my car in to him.

It's been an adventure...and the cost has gone up each time!

Is your painter local to San Berdoo?
Yeah, my painter is in San Bernardino/Colton. It's been very disappointing with the failed promises but I have a little hope again. Now I'll get to see how long it takes him to cut and buff and replace all the trim. I am really hoping I have the convertible to drive when the weather is still nice.
