Wow what a collection of Automobile stuff. To bad it is not in our neighborhood to go check out.

Hi Alex, I have used them also. That sounds like a good price for your bumper. I had dropped my bumpers and bow-ties off on Saturday got a estimate and then received a phone call Monday morning stating the estimate I received was not correct :eek:. It should of been $400 more then I was quoted. So at this point I will be pulling back my bumpers because it is a little over my budget. Will have to have then done at a later date. Yes cash only but watch if you go to pick parts up on Saturdays. If you like to hear why PM me. All the other parts I had done by them were done well also.

Hi Frank, Reply from my contact It's not a repair shop but a machine shop. I do all my mechanical repairs here. Mike Gregory does this for me. If he's looking for machine work it's called "Auto Machine in St. Charles. 630-584-1188 Talk to Kim or John. 310 North 6th street. Not sure if that is much help.

The place that did the work was D&D Classic Bright Works Piqua, Ohio Cost was $2400 for the headlamps, tail light bezel, and two wheel hub covers. I received a referral from a few people here and from Packard Information.com stating that he does some outstanding work which he did but now my pockets are empty

Hi Frank, The shop that did the metal work for me mention to me he uses a shop that is either located in Naperville or St Charles to work on the engines for the cars he restores. I have fired off an email to him and asked for the shops phone number and address. Will forward it on to you once I receive it. Best regards,

Hello Frank, What type of work on the motor do you need?

Jeff, Thanks for sharing with us. As the looks of it you all had fun, a great turn out and are not afraid to take your cars out in the snow. Guess it is the old saying for you all "Cars a meant to be driven not just sitting around collecting dust Do they use salt on the roads in your neck of the woods?

Wow that sure is clean inside for a Ford. I remember the days I worked for my stepfather some of them Ford engines caked up so easily with gunk.

Terry and John, Thanks for the offer. I put this wanted add out there just in case this new chrome shop I am using couldn't repair mine. Well he can and he is moving forward in repairing them for me along with some other parts I sent him. I really appreciate your replies. Will make a followup post once I get them back.

Roger's handcrafted 1:12 scale models
Tom M replied to Roger Zimmermann's topic in Our Cars & Restoration Projects
Just an FYI for anyone that cant read French. Google Toolbar has a feature for Firefox and Internet Explorer that can translate the French to English and maybe some other languages. Roger, You sure kept people interested over there. Thirty pages of replies. How wonderful is that. -
I received the same response yesterday on my Headlight wanted add. Is this guy legit or a scammer.

Good Morning Keith, You posted a shortcut to you picture instead of the actual picture. So we can't see it on our end.
