What gearbox are you using? Sorry if you've already said but I haven't read all of the pages, one of the skyline conversions?

I'm sure the real reason Jacko hasn't put it right is would you want that goon working on your car again after what happened???
If I was in Martin's shoes I'd not be bothered how long it took from the new guy, as if it doesn't come back perfect he must be close to the point of loosing all motivation for his project.

That was rubbish, he simply used that as a way out. The new paint job will be right.

sorry Martin, what i ment was thought you were in a rush to use car for a holiday, thats why you didn't want Jacko to do your car as you needed it back quick, but that ain't happening with your new guy as he has had it for a good few months

Love the car Mate got to love a black 500 having seen some of your past cars I know it will be top.
Shocked by this thread though.
Jacko don't know you fella but play the game
1. pay the money, it's only fair.
2. Have some fooking pride in your work, I saw a quote where you said that if someone wasn't happy with your work all they had to do was tell you, what the ???? your the "pro" you should be spotting and correcting imperfection invisable to the untrained eye before the car is even given back to the owner.
3. Consider what the fook all this is doing for your buisness.
On another note if someone is looking to have paint in the future I may know a man
he's a real gem and a true hidden secret, past work includes 3 concourse wins and second place at the concourse champions of champions held at the nec last year, all in his first attempt. I would love to see him lay it on a ford.
I would put his paint against anyone in the country be it ford or ferrari, smooth as glass or a perfect factory texture he is the master of all.
code name vanvermin, lol don't ask
