I like to stay positive with things but I would be pissed.  That sucks.  All this time and now . . . sorry, no can do?   :swear: 

Didn't you talk about just You and RED painting it??  I bet you could do it. Or if you're close enough to Reflections, I always like his results when I see the pics. 

Man . . . .   I'm sure an answer will present itself.   :grinyes:

That is really a bummer!  :stomp: I was looking forward to seeing it inside the Congress Center at the Auto Show.

But before beating yourselves up too much about the time lost, look on the bright side. First; the family bonding will continue.
Second; You may not think so, but you'll probably do a better job, because you care about not only what's seen, but what lies beneath. And finally; You'll also be able to say, "We did absolutely EVERYTHING ourselves!"  I know that in the end it will be, JOB WELL DONE:2thumbs:
