Ja, Ja, boet your off for a jol while swambo is away !!
Well Karl it's been four weeks and you know how many dents there were all nice and smooth now and they did have to fit in other jobs along the way
Work? Yes I remember thatDents....... I never saw any dents on it
Good job you didn't have to get back to work. Did they say it was going to be this long?
after the winch bumper dug in. It's lòoking very good so far another job they did was to get the front and rear bumpers and rock sliders re-powder coated, the whole job has cost less than 3grand GBP 
Work? Yes I remember that
No dents? Remember that tree that smashed the rear door window you replaced for me? I dont think there was one undented panel on the truck including the roof where i jacked it into the garage roof before I had the tent. They did say it would be a long job because of all the damage they also did some small rebuilding of the front wings that were damaged by that Toyota dealers workshop wall
There will be Phoenix resurection thread, with pics, when I get back home

I'm gonna chip in here Karl, if you and Chas don't mind. The guys at the body shop only had photos of the Phoenix to go by, so the original plan led them to allocate a week dedicated to the truck.
Of course when it turned up in real life, and they saw its "certain patina", it was obvious that one week wouldn't cut it.
Sadly, week 2 had them busy with a pre-booked VW Golf in a similar state, so that had to take precedence.
Now we're into week 3 and it's all the chosen colour now, but still has to be reassembled, glass, fixtures & fittings, you know the score.
He's had the bumpers sandblasted too and re-painted, so they have to go back on, it's been quite a job all in all but it's scheduled to be finished Friday.
If it is, we can get the roof rack and RTT back on this weekend and Chas can be on his way, Monday.
It's been fun having him around tbh, and he doesn't make a bad cuppa tea, either!
PS I'm not allowed to say this, but the Phoenix looks cool now, but I'm sworn to secrecy, and you're gonna have to wait for photos till he gets back home
Till then,
drumroll......
Not on the photos, but they gave him a price when he drove it in, after they'd all stopped laughing.
Runs and hides....
I bet they thought all their Christmas had come at once. Ching Ching. Time to shut shop and retire now
Well I don't know how their price compares Romanian wise but in the UK it would be at least double and they have come reccomendedI bet they thought all their Christmas had come at once. Ching Ching time to shut shop and retire now
