As for LTMW I still see the same cars from months/years ago. I have a car here at my shop that I won't even say what is wrong with it cause the list is too long to type out. The car was there for TWO YEARS. If you stay on top of your build at LTMW then you will be fine, if you don't I wish you the best of luck.

The last time I dealt with him was from July 2014 ~ August 2016. I've dealt with Ivan since day one at their OG shop for LTBMW around 2009. I also dealt with Ivan since day one when he opened his own shop. How long have you been dealing with him? Sorry if that came off sounding confrontational which I'm not trying to be, but I'm just curious.
I guess we hold the records because to be honest, my cars were at Strassesport for TWO YEARS also. I was on top of my build the final year. I was even there tearing down the car with Ivan because if I didn't go, nothing was done. When you're paying a shop to do work, but you have to go there yourself and commit nights to push them to make progress, how would you feel? In Ivan's defense, since he didn't know how to do the wiring, subcontracting it out was probably a bad decision, and I made a bad decision going along with it.
And yea you're right about LTMW, they weren't great for a period of time. How do I know? Because they built my first wagon. I still had to do some chasing around back then around 2011.
Jose does amazing paint work and Carlos does dope body work, but they're freelance and have their own customers too. Just saying.
BTW, I have no business affiliations with either shop. I'm just a customer.
I do hope things are better though. I just don't see myself going back after getting burned.
Nice car btw!
