If you paid them by credit card call the c/c company and put in a dispute. If it was through paypal open up a case against them.

Well a friend of mine agreed to to paint it for me and he's an excellent painter thats painted half million dollar show cars and part of our agreement was that i would de-trim the the car myself and take care of the vinyl top myself to save a little time for him and a little money for me. He owns a very busy collision business and doesnt usually do full custom paint jobs in classic cars anymore so we compromised a little so i could free up space in his shop and he could get back to business making money. Im sure he didnt make much off my car cause he definetely hooked me up. I have to cut and bufff the car myself as well but ive done it before and im not too worried about it.

I bought an NOS emblem for a 79-81 mistakenly thinking they were all the same. Oh well, I'll find something to do with it. If anyone is interested in it I'll sell it!


Do you still have this, or did the guy who sent you a PM buy it? Interested if you still have it -- or if not, where did you find it? Thanks.
