Already tried this... They basically told me to shove it. This body work/paint was done OFF the record for cash basically. There are no reciepts, just a set price. We've known these guys a long time and they do top notch work... just not on restos. I told them the gate was original and thats what I wanted. I'm just hoping thats what they end up getting. The paint has already been sprayed on the cab so I can't do anything. Our lawyer said we had 3 options before:

1. Tell them to put it back together, and pay w/e they charge to put it back. Then take it elsewhere, where I'll be in the same situation.

2. Write them a notice that it has to be completed in X number of time, and still pay the extra.

3. Suck it up and wait.

Now basically since its off the record, they can say it was in horrible shape and screw me out of money. So it's just a waiting game now.
