Re: LT1 TCS Clips fs PICS Nova, Camaro, Monte,Chevelle
Buddy..I didn't think it was your auction. I was wondering if someone bought one of yours and was trying to sell it. Jack showed me one of yours . Very nice. No way I could tell it from an original.

Re: LT1 TCS Clips fs PICS Nova, Camaro, Monte,Chevelle
Dont believe there is/was any logo or part # on original (no room/too small) so will be next too impossible to distinguish ORIGINAL from new repop......but time will tell on this subject!!!!!
Certain other spring steel clips and brkts like fuel line supports and PCV Aircleaner clips etc etc have part #'s stamped and logos which have NOT been reproduced on the clone parts......

I'm keeping track of everyone that has purchased one(quite a few so far), but I'm NOT going to accuse anybody. It's bound to happen. Ebay is a free marketplace to sell your "stuff". It was purchased by somebody, and now it's their's to sell. Buyer beware.. His auction does NOT state that's it's ORIGINAL, but rather that it was "Originally used on"..blah blah blah. It's up to the buyer to READ the wording in the auction.

Re: LT1 TCS Clips fs PICS Nova, Camaro, Monte,Chevelle
I emailed the guy and asked if they are original eguipment. Here is his response.
James I wasnt aware that there were any reproduction clips out there. If you know where to buy them reproduction, I would go that route. It will save you a few hundred $$$

I'd like to introduce myself here on Yenko.net. I'm the clip maker.I work in a metal shop and made these just to see if it could be done.I had some help from a co-worker and Buddy. I hope you all like these tcs clips we're pretty happy with them.

Re: LT1 TCS Clips fs PICS Nova, Camaro, Monte,Chevelle
Maybe you can mark your clip with a logo than can't be seen once installed. That would slow down people reselling yours as orig.
