Did you tell them "no rush"? Never seems to work out for me. They tend to interpret that as "only if there is nothing else to do"

+1 to that. I went through the same thing when my engine build was getting done. Had all the parts and every two weeks or so I went in and everything still in the same spot.

Took my shop 2+ years for an engine build, custom turbo install, and some suspension parts.
I told them "As long as it's ready for springtime."
I guess I didn't tell them which spring?

What we said was “the car needs to be done by June for Carlisle SVT” but we think they heard “paint needs to be done by June” oh well

June is still 14 months away man, plenty of time.

The front of the hood was trimmed to fit the turbos up front, it was closed in and everything painted to match.

It’s nice to catch up on this thread and see all the progress and powdercoat! Looking amazing!

Motion Raceworks strutless wing on Carbon Driven trunk. Still waiting on paint for this but it should be ready for reassembly after.

Car is being picked up tomorrow if it’s done at paint or not. We’ve been overly patient but we’re getting it back. I’m excited to get it moved to the next step.
