Get ready for "Sticker Shock" I had asked him at last years Classic how much to finish the restoration on my bug vert. $8,000.00 - 10,000.00 without even looking at it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred McDonald" <texasbluebus@xxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 2009 11:17:16 AM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: [tcb] Re: Need a VW friendly body shop in Dallas...

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! -
