It started @ 2 am this morning. My father purchased a high dollar “every nut and bolt restoration” 66 Chevelle in IL. So this was the day i was goin to pick the car up. I drove all the way to meet the guy in a parking lot to get the car. Yes every thing was replaced but he had no idea what he was doing. Fender gaps, door gaps, hood and trunk gaps all off. Under coating one only one front inner fender well??? WTF it was supposed to be all new. The paint had shadows. He spray’d the whole car with high build and it all sunk (wavy). Tires all rubbed. Front rubed the aftermarket sway bar Rears rubbed the 1/4 panels. The car was dirty!!! He didn;t clean it. Water stains on the wheels, He must have hosed the car down and water ran down the firewall and stained it all up. It was just horrible :mad: So i wasted 17 hours of my life driving today and $400 in gas money :madfawk:
sounds like a drunken gear head.
that sucks dude.
so im taking it you didnt get it even tho your father purchased it?
Nope If i brought that car home he would have shot me. So now we are waiting for him to wire the money back tommorow. This was supposed to be a reptuable (spelling) car guy. And thats why we trusted him.
didnt you see pics. why pay if you didnt see pics.
Yes seen about 200 of them. Looked very nice. There were picture of everything. Every part before during and after being restored. I think the guy took better pictures and working on the car. Here are 2 of the body. Looks nice right? The car was junk!! The fiberglass panels on my racecar fit better. The paint on my racecar was better than this “show” car. And my car get the shit beat out of it every week
damn looks good, Prolly photochopped
from just looking at the pics i can see the tiger stripes in teh paint. i can also see the wheels offset are wrong. something about that door gap looks funny,
I’m sure you would have noticed that if i did not say anything to begin with.
Chevelle’s are nice cars, the pics don’t look bad. looks like he got some SS cregers on there looks like some winter tires are on there. car don’t look at bad in the pics.
you can’t tell that from that shitty jpeg.
you need a high-fucking res TIF or something equivalent.
those look to be TTs, also look like directional tires not snow tires
The wheels were torque thrust 2’s 17 inch. They were not goin to stay on the car. The were goin to be replaced by painted steel wheels and bottle caps w/ redline tires
sorry i see enough paint jobs to knwo what ot look for. you can see in those pics the shade differences in the paint.
reflections?
by the headlight looks to be striped, by the door handle on the quarter looks to be striped, and also where the mailbu badge is looks to be striped. also looks like the door was painted off the car. for some reason its a different shade then the car
leave it too jeeves to spot everything.
Well for your info the paint was pretty good on the whole car except on the rear pillars and the tops of the 1/4s. But i’m not goin to argue with you anymore since you are such an expert in be able to judge everything by a picture. :tool:
Buddy of mine has 4 Creger rims for sale. sure you don’t want them for the chevelle?
Did you not read what happened? I drove 8 1/2 hours to go get this car. Which turned out to be a piece of shit. Which then i told the guy to shove the car up his ass and then proceded to drive 8 1/2 hours back to pittsburgh W/O the car
