Title: Need to hire someone to help with my project - Boulder / Denver
Post by: mgbeda on February 01, 2020, 07:33:08 PM
Hi Folks,

I've been mostly absent from this forum for the last few years.  And my restoration project has been mostly stalled for that time.  Long story short I got a job in California and moved here, but my Caddy is still in our barn (concrete floor garage) in Colorado.  I had the idea that I would be able to go back frequently and keep working on her, but that isn't really working- I get in about 10 hours of work on her every 3 months.  Why don't I just pack her up and move everything to California?  Two reasons. I don't have the space for her out here and she currently has her body chained to the barn's rafters because the current task is stripping and repainting the underbody and frame.  That's also the reason why I don't just send her to a restorer in Colorado.  I am about 70% done with the underside and I really want to finish it off the same way I started it.  I've realized she will have to go to a professional soon enough, but I'd at least like to get the body and frame reunited first.

What I need is to hire someone to go there and work on her for me.  Right now the task at hand is stripping undercoating, a pretty messy job, but not one that requires a lot of skill or experience.  The most important thing is that the person be 100% trustworthy.  Does anyone here know of anyone that might be interested?

Thanks a bunch,
