Eggshells

Seen the term used on the board.
What is it?

 

I learned something new too, Austin.

You guys should be driving cars with metal trim like some of us LOL!

Of course that's part of why I scaled at 4505 lbs last time I weighed in many moons ago. Oh well.

Thanks for the reply. Atleast I know where they are now.

 

When I first reproduced these (and showed them at the GSCA restoration clinic) Brad grabbed one of my pieces and bent it until the ends touched. Everyone in the room, including myself, was waiting to hear the crack, but it didn’t and went right back to the correct shape.

So Duane, are you still making these reproduction pieces?

 

No,
Sadly I am not.

Other companies made reproductions of these pieces that were not molded, like mine and the originals, and it undercut the market.

There is no need to get into all this again, but I do enjoy seeing what many of my “old parts” are bringing today.

It is justification as far as what I made and how I made my parts.

There are many people that are still interested in acquiring parts that are as close to the originals as is possible to make, with today’s technology and scales of value.

To these people “good enough” is not in their vocabulary.

I got the repros a few years ago, they seem to hold out a lot better than the originals, which crumbled to dust when I tried to unscrew them.

 

Can someone post some pics of this item

 

Corner of the rear window, red arrow.

 

Thanks, as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.
Those items in the rear deck are usually sun "burned" badly.
