I hired someone to do body work on a 71 GTO that I have owned for over 20 years and he made a deal with [redacted] (owner) to sandblast the doors, fenders, and an extremely rare NOT reproduced Endura GTO Steel hood only to remove paint, no rust.The hood was smooth on top BEFORE taking it to [redacted]'s business. (No dents before to sand blasting) When I arrived at his place to see my car. The shop was closed. It was left outside (not inside like I was told it would be held) with the keys just left on the seat. The rare very expensive hood (1750.00+750$ship=2500.00 used. In 20 years I never saw a NOS (new old stock) hood avail. Locating 1 NOS and its 3500+750ship=4250.I found the hood on the floor next to the car in a corner behind the shop like trash.Hood is warped and dented full of waves. Too much pressure was used.You can see the hood framing underneath from on top of the hood now.I asked for his business insurance information and I was never given it.[redacted] said his employee damaged it and he personally could fix the dents by blasting the other side and pushing the metal back up.3 wks later many calls, visits speaking to him it was never done. He just kept saying I'll do it tomorrow.I informed him I was 45 mins away and had a experienced body man driving 1 hour to meet there to see the hood.He said he is there (5:30 pm) and he was going to get something to eat. We arrived and he ignored my calls. We waited 2.5 hours (8pm) and after 3 texts and 13 calls to him and 2 VMails.Completely ignored me. The next morning at 8:45 am he calls me thinking I was someone else. I asked him do you realize who you called?He said "Oh I meant to call someone else. I know I F'ed up last night. I'll call you back."9 days later. No callback.I picked up my hood the next day. Still damaged. Can't find him on sunbiz either. Buyer beware with this company.See you in court. https://www.pinterest.com/[redacted]0096/damaged-hood-and-parts-by-woodlawn-sand...⇄
