Fresh from the BE assembly plant! This is an example of why Eric J. regrets posting the BE dates. Too easy to fake.

That is a BS answer. Heartbeat probably has more real rare Camaro parts than anyone in the country so calling it a fake seems out of line without a better answer. If he had a "Buy it now" of 1500.00 I might be inclined to believe it was a stamped piece but his price is up there.

I would have to agree. Jim's prices are usually up there, and he isn't much for giving "deals", but I have dealt with him several times, and find him to be an honest guy. He does have some parts that are very difficult to find elsewhere.

I also remember him stating in one auction that he would not stamp a date code on an undated part, because it was agains "Heartbeat Ciy policy". Have to respect that.

Just my 02 cents.

Charlie,
Its never described as "original", only "re-manufactured". Another "correct", "numbers matching", "appears original" part!

How do you get the tubes so nice? Sanding primer, sand, Sanding primer, sand, Sanding primer, sand, Sanding primer, sand, Sanding primer, sand, Sanding primer, sand, Sanding primer, sand, Sanding primer, sand... Well I think you get the point. It takes a little TLC but it can be done and will look awesome when done right. My BU rear looked like an alligator after I sandblasted it. Now it looks NOS.
