I just spoke with Mr. Chadick and I must say....what a wonderful person to talk to!
That being said, he said per the description of the damage and age, it is hard to guage, but a general estimate of restoration will be $3000-$5000 and that is playing with many factors. He asked for me to bring it to him when I could and he would look at it as well as get his guy to look at repairing the stock.
I wanted to say thank you again to everyone who has commented, given advice, and talked me through this wonderful experience. All of you are a true blessing and please know that I appreciate each and every one of you!
