Are they squawking because you pulled them before it went to the shop, or are you trying to get them to pay you for the R&R?

That's a tough one. You have to PROVE it was needed at the shop without engine/trans for the repair to be done. Talk to the shop, creativity is your best friend.

Welcome to the world of autobody work. We deal with this stuff on a weekly basis. They cut labor, they cut paint and materials.

A tip of the hat to Don Kennedy for his work on getting the problems handled. Thanks Don

Went to the body shop yesterday, one side is done and the other side is being worked on. We should have it easily done before Christmas.

Thanksgiving day and after our meal with the extended family (26 I think) it will be a nice quiet day in the shop without interruptions.

It didn't happen.
