My 69 Camaro needs your honest opinions
 

I took my car to a shop to get the quarters, rear deck filler, tail pan, and trunk pan replaced and to install a Quadra link, mini tubs and subframe connectors. I told him I did not want any corners cut and he said that’s no problem his shop does not cut corners. I was quoted 8k and 1 month to do the work. During the build I questioned some of the things he did and his response was “this is just what happens when you replace panels on a 1st gen Camaro that they are some of the worst fitting cars out there”. 6 months later I Paid $24K, and this is what I got. I am not satisfied. Other shops have said it is sub standard work but I wonder if they are just saying that because they are competitors.

Am I being too picky?

You need to listen to the other shops. There is plenty of pictures on this web site that shows what the work should look like, or this is a very good joke. It's not April 1st is it?

I wish it was

If thats the case you better get hold of BAR to look into this. You could have gone to someone like MCC and bought a whole tub for less money

sorry to see you recieved that work for the price you paid.The quadralink has to be centered off the housing not the pinion since the pinion if offset on the 9 inch. the shame is that alot of "quality" shops will weld patches on like on your car, its just they slap filler on it so you never really get to see what it looks like underneath.You should get second and third opinions from qualified shops and consider legal action.

wow...don't know what to say.:_paranoid

^^^^I'm with him on this^^^:willy:

Man bud , I see why you are not happy.
As a builder I would never dream of putting anything out there like this, if I did I would be out of business for sure.

This is the kind of work out there that people do then bring it to us to be fixed. The problem is the only thing I see fit to do is to "redo" EVERYTHING.

The housing is runied, or at least the brackets, the trunk....holy crap and the quarters, man this guy should never think that building cars is in his future. Holy crap man I just cant believe people can live with thereself after charging someone like that .

The purpose of this forum and others is to inform eveyone out there of places to stay away from as well as the people that help this industry.

With that being said , who is it?
Lets just hope its not a sponsor like Anthonys deal was ....?????
Looks like another "KARMA" Get the paypal donations started !!!!!!!
