Default RubyRed Paint-remember?

Well, I posted about the damage to my 87 Ruby by an uninsured motorist, remember? New hood, bumper, emblems etc. $5000. worth! and about our negotiating remainder of paint Job, rear end-for $1000., well, I saw it today-AND, I'm-VERY Happy. Some asked the name of the body/paint shop-and I didn't want to post it until final results-well, it's Huddlesons in White Center,Seattle, WA. They took there time-and I didn't hurry them at all-went in there 2 times in 3 weeks and it looks oh sooooo sweet. They replaced hood, bumper, emblems etc., I'm picking it up tomorrow, or Monday-and from what I've seen-it can't be better. BTW-the appraiser said they are a very good shop-and so far I can't agree more!

It's nice to see a positive comment about a job well done. There are still good workers out there, it's just tough to find them. Glad it worked out for you.
