I can follow up to what Steve just posted about customers wanting to do their own assembly after paint and bodywork. I visited their shop and talked over my project before I made the decision to go with them. All I wanted was to drop off the shell and get it back painted with the "overspray look" underneath. I also provided enough seals and mechanicals (latches, etc.) to allow safe transport back to my house (about 3 hours). I was extremely happy with the results and the turn around time was good. The best part was the reassembly that I did mostly myself. Some may think that part is a pain but I had a great time and had the pride in the accomplishment when finished.
This forum is a great first step in your decision making process. It was my first step as well.

You can see at the website what condition I dropped it off and what it looked like as I picked it up.
