Latest Crisis

I was contacted by the warehouse where the Ghia is in storage in Delaware: "Dear Larry, I am sorry to have to write this message. During our annual storage audit our warehouseman placed a storage vault in front of your vehicle, accidentally hitting the front of the auto and causing minor damage. The attached photos are poor, but show the damage. Obviously we will cover all repair costs but need to have your authorization to move forward. Please confirm that we can proceed and whether you need a local contact to come by to take a look at the car. I believe you had an inspection late last year on the car. Our apologies for causing this damage and troubling you with this issue. Best regards,"
At this point I'm a little frustrated that the car won't be done in my lifetime. So I'm in the process of screening a few Ghia restoration specialists to determine who best to finish the car while we are abroad.
