How to Best Restore a Grille for 69 Dart

Leanna,

When do you think you might be able to take on some more work? Any chance you might be ready for some more by mid to late summer? I am leaning towards sending you my grille and headlight bezels as well as my valve covers and air cleaner cover.

I constantly take on more powder coating work because it's the lifeline of my shop so your valve covers and air cleaner assembly won't be that long. But straight up, I only take on trim restoration because I love the work and find it very rewarding on a personal level ... and I got pretty overloaded not long after the first couple of jobs were shown off by the customers and I haven't caught up yet from that initial onslaught. It's time consuming and delicate work and there's only one of me.

So I've put the brakes on accepting new trim restoration jobs though (like your grille and bezels) until I can get through the backlog -- some of my guys with trim parts have been waiting wayyyyy too long, and have been extraordinarily patient with me -- and it's just not fair to them, you or me if the waiting line is so long that I'm merely nothing but a holding facility until the powder work slows down enough to tackle some of the trim work.

It's the middle of April and I've got 25 jobs here. Usually it's slowing down a bit by now, but every year gets busier. I need clones. :burnout:
