I'll give him a call the end of this week to see how far he's gotten.

I stopped by there last night and your parts are all in primer with a guide coat on them. He said they would be wet sanding them today and then painting today or tomorrow. At any rate he said you should probably have the car back on Friday.

Thanks for the offer. If I can catch a ride from Castle Rock to downtown Denver in the morning, I should be able to get to Jarod's after work (3:30PM).If I'm stranded I'll give you a call.
Thanks Again
PS I'm actually hopin' he'll be around Sat. this way I can make one trip to get both the parts and the vette. And I wouldn't have to put up with rush hour traffic.

I was there again last night - everything is painted now, they will have to cut & buff everything now. Not sure if it will be ready today or Monday. It's going to look like a brand new car though! You've really taken care of that thing!

I knew it needed paint but didn't have the $$. Then when I dropped the seat from my Caravan on the hood I called the insurance company. I've got a $500 deductible and Jarod said I'd save him quite a few hours if I took off the front bumper. And in return he would paint the rockers, front quarter panels and gas tank lid. So its gonna cost my $500. I told Jarod to mix extra paint I'm thinking of tackleing the rear bumper?????.
Once I get the body in shape I wanna start doin' some work on the motor. I polished my valve covers and wheels now I need to do the plenum and runners. Then we'll see about headers, 1.6 rockers and a good tune.

Friggin snow. Picked up my bumper, rockers, 1/4 panels and gas lid on Friday. They look real good.
Was supposed to pick up the vette today, duh.
Castle Rock got at least 6" last night.
Depending on how bad it looks tonight(in castle rock) I may not be able to get it till Wednesday. I just want to get it home and back together.
Yeah I know, I should've realized Halloween in Colorado.
Gotta yell at Jarod for not painting the inside of the gas lid. But I waxed it and it looks good.

Got the Vette home, hood looks great. I'll start puttin it back together this weekend.
BTW This is Jarod's slow time. Anybody needing any paint work I'm sure he can get you in an out real quick. You may be able to negotiate a good price. If I can get the vette back together real quick I'm going to see what he'll want for the rear bumper. The idea of him doing it real quick sounds appealing, because after a few weeks I'll forget how to get it back together
