I feel your pain Dennis. I had mine in the shop for about 8 months last year for an engine and trans rebuild, both of which were only supposed to take about two months. The time kept getting longer and longer and the bill higher and higher. I know how to do some of the stuff myself, but don't have the time or the space. So I pay, and I pay.

Hopefully it will turn out better for you. At least if you do it yourself, you'll know it was done right.

I'm going to turn my car in to get it painted this winter, and I hope my experience is better than the last time.

Good luck. Remember, there are some great people here who can talk you through just about any vette issue. You aren't alone.
