You should, and a shop that makes it difficult is telling you something. Agree how often up front so you are not dropping in on a busy bay. The visit where the body is on the rotisserie and the metal is bare is the one that matters; that is when problems are still cheap to talk about.
This happens, and paperwork is your only protection. Keep the title in your own hands, keep every invoice, and photograph the car and its boxed parts on each visit so a dismantled car is documented. A shop holding unpaid labor can put a lien on the vehicle, so do not let the balance drift.
Usually not, and anyone promising otherwise is selling something. Only a handful of models return the hours a full restoration takes. Go in wanting the car, not the margin. If resale is the point, buying one somebody else finished is almost always the cheaper road.
