Probably not to well, I would think.

If I had a dollar for every time a restoration shop spoke to me like that while I was neck deep in my restoration project, I'd be a rich man by now.
My opinion of vendors that talk like that don't deserve my business, and speaks volumes to me about what they can actually do for me - Nothing...
It takes extra commitment to restore a Suburban, and when you are done that will show in the finished product.
