According to his 2019 obituary at Miller's Funeral Home in North Wilkesboro, NC:
After retiring from Hayes Printing, Mr. Hayes owned and operated the Thunderbird Barn, where he sold vintage Thunderbird parts and used cars. He was a member of various Thunderbird clubs and loved driving Betsey, his 1960 T-Bird.
Sorry to be the bearer of sad news

Send a note to Richard Lentinello at
PO Box 12421
Knoxville, TN 37912or call Pat Buckley at the National Office at 717 534-1910.
Okay, I had to call Richard anyway. He said no because he is revising the evaluation sheet. You might want to send him a note about the two websites
BTW, all webmasters and editors need to make sure you receive Constant Contact emails. That is how you are contacted.

Welcome first time poster. As several have noted, we need more information to estimate a value.
Here's a start for your search:

CarNucopia and 1967 Red Deville, thank you for the appreciation. 61 polara (chief judge) and I will relay your kind words to the HNR at our next monthly meeting.
While the Charlotte Motor Speedway does provide us with a great venue site, there are some things that come with that venue in NC during April, including the tents and the cold. Yes, everyone should be quieter while other awards are read, but we know the tent scatters the noise and does not absorb it. As to the cold, come to our Auto Fest in the Fall and we North Carolinians will make it up to you with 90-degree weather.
I want to add a shout out to Tom Gibson who did such a great job as the Zenith coordinator, to my bride who recruited the show field tent team, to President Jack Harris who kept us moving in the right direction and CEO Steve Moskowitz who never sits down!

Shirley died on April 1 at 11:20 pm.
She was a mainstay of the Hornets Nest Region and the Charlotte AutoFair. Whenever she answered the phone, you knew you were going to get a correct and straight answer.

Paul,
Hornets Nest has been to Helen, GA and had a great time. We arranged it through their travel office. I figure you know where that is.

Thank you, Debbie and Pat for pulling this together.

What’s the earliest a trailer can be parked? While I won’t be showing my car until Saturday, I’d like to arrive earlier to walk the swap meet and see the show field Friday.
Thanks
8 am as it says in the brochure.
Around 6 am on Friday...

Wayne, Yes, exactly.

This ongoing debate about moderation with Fordy.
I have no problem with the banning of E-116-YH.
-
Okay, I simply want to ask, How is any of this advancing the mission and purpose of AACA?
-
And both of them need to post an apology to all the moderators and all members of the forums at the end of their ban.

Yes, even a curmudgeon has a "curmudder" somewhere....
And yes, titles are a universal notice of states' rights. NC has gone out of our way to make titling an old car as hard as possible. I have a title on my boat, which is actually a complete waste of paper. I do carry copies of all the pertinent old car laws printed on my AACA stationary in my old cars everywhere I go.
-
Well, now they have made up and gone on to other things. All's well that ends well.
And you are right about those crybabies! 🥲
-
Okay, something I never thought I'd see.... Terry Bond, a former president of AACA, arguing with another poster about staying on topic, and now they are both off topic.
Just thought I'd mark this moment, as I for one am really enjoying it!

Mark is right. You can do a lot of damage with a pressure washer if not careful. I have three large decks at my home and I quickly learned to use the widest head, least pressure to clean them.
I'd say try a noncorrosive degreaser and a hose first.
If that doesn't work to suit you, check for a Hotsy rental There is a Hotsy dealer near me, and they do rentals.

Peter and all, I did PM the OP. He is okay with his thread going off the rails. And since he got enough good answers, he is helping his friend list the unneeded parts.
All is well that ends well.

I have been an employee of Paul’s Chrome for the past 20 years and have been responsible for all stainless restorations for the company. Since the closing of Paul’s I have opened STAINLESS REVIVAL LLC. Specializing in removing dings, dents, bends and twists producing a mirror finish. Look me up at stainlessrevival.com. I’ve always taken pride in my work and treat every piece as if it were my own.
Almost everyone has received their parts back and refund checks have been completed. Paul’s is not interested in keeping anybody’s parts. Lack of production and rising costs of supplies forced us to close. A lot of Paul’s staff retired after Covid and has been extremely difficult finding quality replacements.
Great to hear about your new company.
Great to hear about a proper conclusion for Paul's.
Y ou hang in there!

No naughty list for you. There is a list of words that spammers often use which will automatically prompt a review.
Some technical terms that seem quite innocent like CAD are on the approval list.
I just approved your post under 3D printing. You're good to go.

TAKerry,
I had hoped that Dave, Stan, or Jim would see your post, but let me take a stab at it.... and then, any way I've got to call Dave today about the Grand National. So, I'll tell him.
First and foremost, I think everyone in AACA judging understands your concern. And yes, the Advanced school is not like jumping from high school calculus to graduate school, but there is a planned progression from one to the other. And every time I listen to Dain, Stan, John, I learn something new!
Thus, AACA Judges' training includes more than gaining credits to go to Advanced, be a Senior Master Judge, be a Team Captain, judge at a Grand National, etc. It includes experience. That experience certainly includes several schools, several different CJEs, judging at different places, on different teams, with different captains, in several classes, with several different makes and models.
In other words, while that credit goal is certainly worth it, the experience of getting there is a great part of what makes it worth it --whether it takes you three years or seven. That is also a great part of the fact that our judging system helps us judge any car and is admired by all.
BTW, welcome to the team! Enjoy the ride!

At any rate, thanks to West and Steve for taking care of this with Jack's statement.

Yes, Alan. You can park in trailer parking on Friday afternoon. The designated trailer parking hours are 8 am to 5 pm. If you find you will arrive later, give me a call, 704 577-8576. And be patient....

If you are asking about a Hebmuller VW, it is a Type 14A Cabriolet built by German coach builder Hebmuller and Sohn after WWII.
If you have found one in a scrap yard, know that they are rare....
