My '56 F-100 bodywork is at the painter's and he is winning about all of the work and he doesn't have a body guy. He wants me to order up new bedsides, rear fenders, and running boards. Oh, he wants me to change to color I selected to a single stage lighter solid color and has a very impressive estimate (almost what I paid to get my 40 foot motorhome & 22 foot enclosed trailer painted). I am not real sure that he wants to job. Right now he has everything in black epoxy primer. I am going to his shop on Monday to go over everything.
The problem that I have is we are moving to Savannah, GA in April. I need to get the truck back together as a roller before then so I can trailer it to GA. Another problem is space at the new house...I will only have a two car garage instead of my current five car.
I am not real happy about giving up most of my hard work, but I can get the new bodywork delivered in about 3 weeks. While I really liked the color I selected, I could be happy with a baby blue or an off white color. My concern is all of the new bodywork will not have been fit up with old parts. So I will be doing that after they have been painted. There is the schedule to consider. 
Another way to go would be to just get the bodywork back in primer. Do the fitment during a temporary installation for the move. Then find a body shop to do the bodywork and paint in the Savannah area. Anyone have any recommendations? 
What would you do?
