The guys quoting me 8k to paint it worked out of their backyard garage at night..no insurance, no guarantee, who knows what quality of materials, I'm sure under the table no taxes paid, who knows when it would get done.

A friend went this route with his street rod. 1/2 of the way through the guy said he has family problems(divorce) and to come get the car within in 2 days as he was moving out.
