Body Shop Problems James, me eather!!!! :af: I hope to have Bruce come down with his trailer ASAP to get his car back, AL.
Charlie brown and the football... :sleep: I feel like Charlie Brown, every few days I check this thread to see the resolution and every time Lucy yanks that football away.
shops that string you along and make excuses for missed deadlines are more common than some of us want to believe.
I have agree with you Henry. I have had a recent "experience" myself. You too ? Anyways, I am currently flooding any and every market available to this "gentleman", and his company. Brutal honesty and all true(had it proof read,lol). I REALLY wish I could find more people that would just tell you the truth.......................... Just too hard these days I guess.
How many shops can screw him at once? You think this ongoing bodyshop story is bad, Bruce tells me he has been waiting another 2 1/2 years for his boat canvas which has been paid for from another GS member's upholstery shop (and Bruce's son even works at this shop) ou: Now that Rodney is dead I guess it is Bruce that gets "no respect"! Now that is too much :grin: but True Mike
Most shops take your work on as a sideline (in their minds). Get to it when they can type of deal. The insurance check work always comes first (bread and butter). To give you a deadline and nowing their not going to meet it is NO VERY HONEST !!!!!! :rant: :af: That type of behavior I would not tolerate....SUE HIM !!!!
No This Is Not Over!!! Well, I'm Back!!! :beer The body shop guy was supposed to have brought the car in the shop at the end of the month , we will see. I will be down there today or early this week. Bruce I think has had enough "BS" from this guy. If the GS is still outside this week I hope to get that car out of there!!! I have not had the time till now to drive out to the painter of my 84 wagon to see his lay out in his shop so I can make recommendation on a new body shop unless Bruce has one lined up. AL.
ah. This sux! Three of the last four jobs I have done have come from another body shop. The Nomad I am doing now is the worst. Guy spent $12k and I stripped everything he did. Bodyman was on crack (litteraly) We are looking for another Buick to do so I hope this helps: http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=77828
This has gone on long enough! You asked for advice on reclaiming your car, and you have received mountains of it [advice], yet your still buying into this jerks wad of lies :af: Enough already! :rant: Either get your car out of there and sue him for the damages, or have the word "BOZO" tattooed across your fore-head. I'm sick of this! Dont get me wrong here, I'v run into my share of smooth talkers and BS artists who have promised me the moon. I'm not [exactly] calling you an idiot or a bozo... But the longer this goes on, the more likely I am to change my opinion of you. MAKE IT END NOW!!!!!!!! :spank:
Body Shops Guys, I hope I'm not bothering you all with these posts. I'm just trying to help out another Buick brother :beer and will not let this body shop screw with a fellow Buick owner!!! AL.
I'm mostly wondering why Bruce hasn't posted in this thread since June 1st. o No: Sure would like to hear what his current thoughts are. I too, can't believe the car is still at the shop.
