You will have to go through the Department of State to apply for extradition. You could claim kidnapping since it was locked in the trunk of a car. :lol:

I agree with what you're saying, but this is like 4 or 5 posts now saying the same thing. "Build it here". I would love to see more manufacturing in the US, but this thread isn't talking about that. The cars are already shipped and work is moving in that direction. We all know your feelings on this. I second the request to stop please. It's becoming non productive and a bit of a distraction. My car is 25 years old now, and if it weren't for this project I still wouldn't be able to get simple sheetmetal replacements for it. If an American Company wanted to make repro's, it would be done by now. Figuratively and literally, "That ship has sailed".

and I don't only say it here...there are too many skilled people out of work and I promote the businesses that manufacture their product on this side of the ocean. I dropped a corporate client of mine because they cheaped out and started manufacturing junk in china. It's attitudes like yours that the ship has sailed that helps the offshore countries get rich. I am confident that there are more people who will fight to bring back what is ours than those like yourself who accept defeat so willingly.

I was simply stating that your complaints on this thread were a bit pointless since the car has already been shipped and work is being done. It's like going into a pizza joint and complaining that they don't make soup, and then stating loudly "I'm not really interested in your food until you start making soup"...........and then refusing to leave. They are never going to make soup.

That is this thread. Those specific parts are not going to be made here. It's a fact. I wish they were. If an American co. thought they could make a profit they would have been made already. I for one am thankful that someone is trying to get this done. Maybe in the future other North American co. will pick up the flag and run with it. Until then we have to settle for the co. that will make them.

Funny stuff Brian. Everytime ypu pick it up you will have a little laugh. I would bring it home with me but security may not let a 24" prybar through.

Thanks Brian. Glad to hear it's a home town boy involved in this. My hat goes off to both of you for taking the leap in this direction. I can't wait to see what's next. Saving my pennies now!

This is why this community is the bomb. We are all working together to help one another. This is why I love my EL Camino/gbody even more everyday. I could sell and get a 70-72 Monte Carlo or 78-79 Bronco like I want, but they do not have near the same community this selection of cars do. Man I love this place.
