Re: Newly painted w/ scratches and swirls. What to

Re: Newly painted w/ scratches and swirls. What to
With all of the issues, it's incredibly difficult to chose only 10 or 15 pictures, and I don't want a huge page. I'll likely have a summary of the issues and try and cover everything in a couple of...

Re: Newly painted w/ scratches and swirls. What to
Well, this wasn't about the paint not being exactly as promised, it's that its got too many problems to even try and list here. I should have legal recourse, because I didn't have a choice -- they...

Re: Newly painted w/ scratches and swirls. What to
I figured I should post an update. I picked up the car about two or so hours ago. I ended up just taking the car and not paying the balance and they agreed (but I'm still in a bad spot, as good as...

Re: Newly painted w/ scratches and swirls. What to
Yeah, that's the thing, I don't know if the guy just used compound and tried to buff out the scratches, or if he actually color sanded before buffing (at least depending on the depth of the scratch)....

I've got a '67 RS convertible that I've done the engine/trans/rear on, and took it to a body shop for the body and paint and interior. Now, it's almost done and I have a problem, and I'm trying to...

'67 Camaro convertible top: 32 or 38 ounce?
Hi,
I'm looking for a top for a 1967 RS convertible Camaro, and I'm probably wanting the glass window instead of the correct plastic window (I don't like the idea of the plastic window degrading...

Re: A.J. Foyt's 1967 pace car on e-bay
[ QUOTE ]
Not a problem. That Z10 got sold to a guy in Texas. Did you know another guy in the Redding area that owned a roofing company (I think). I bought a 1967 R/S Z/28 from him that ended up in...

Re: Great Parts Sale on eBay!

Re: Sending cash in the mail
The point is, there's absolutely no legitimate reason to send cash via mail. So, there's no need to ask the question. Anyone can cash a money order or cashier's check.
If it's a small amount and...

Re: Great Parts Sale on eBay!
While some stuff would be worth money (I'm sure more than some), there's a lot of junk there. I don't see how they expect $2M for this lot of parts. They're dreaming. It would cost enough just to...
