A good friend and member of the F.W. Volks Folks works at Craigs Collision,
Airport Fwy & Industrial (across from Service King .DON"T take it to Service
King). He did the work on my Tacoma after I rolled it, can't tell it was
ever damaged. IMHO he is just about the best body man in the metroplex. I
would let them look at it, then tell them you want Fredo Ramos to do the
work.

Well, the adjuster just left and wrote me a check for $2,500.That includes 2
new chrome bumpers with impact strips ( $400.00) (only one bumper was messed
up and the impact strips were crappy to begin with) two reflectors with
housing (my est.$40.00) 1 new Hancook tire $50.00) a dog leg ($106.00) new
front door ($275) and 22.5 hours labor plus paint. Hope I can get it done
for less. $300 of that is for a rental car for 10 days.
I told the guy I wanted their shop to do it (because they always low ball
you when the cut a check) but they won't work on anything older than '82.
I am gonna check out Jay in Ennis. The guy in Arlington never called back.

Robert is Robert. I personally would not give him a VW to restore and I
would not give him one to do mechanical work on. However, all the cars I
have seen that they did the paint and body work was really good.

...so it was Friday the 13th and some A-hole came out of a topless bar
parking lot on NWHWY in the driving rain and proceeded to cause a 4 car 1
Bus collision and left the scene. I was the last vehicle to be hit and if I
had left work 5 seconds earlier I wouldn't be typing this email.
I'll be out $250 for the deductible. It could be worse. I only got
un-insured driver coverage 9 days earlier because of the miscreants I was
driving next to made me nervous on the way to Irving each day - thank God.
Anyway the entire driver's side of my bus was scraped by car number 4 and
even messed up my brand new front chrome bumper. Anyway I don't want to take
it to their choice of body shop, so any recommendations? Thanks!
