This is one of those prep for the future posts.
I'm going to need at least one cab corner, inner and outer rockers on the drivers side, inner rocker on the passenger side. And I'll put a new bed on it so it will need paint and any body work the bed requires. Also the passenger fender has rust in the wheel arch so that needs replaced too.
I have a body shop I will probably use that's less than a mile away. They did some work on my Mustang 30 years ago. They were straight up. Shop is still there and has expanded. So I think I can trust them if they decide to take the job, but as a totally **** control freak with trust issues, what questions should I be asking?
Once we agree on an estimate, I plan on gutting the interior before I take it there for actual work, so I already have that on the list to see if that will reduce the cost.
How long is the estimate good for.
Do they warrant their work and how long.
Where do they get their parts.
Anything else you all can think of I should ask?
