That is awesome someone is willing to make this stuff. We ahould try and work with them to get these parts made.
has anyone been able to send lower quarters? I have 4 door quarters i can send, i know that the wheel wells are the same.
make sure you contact him directly and talk with him, he is specific in what he will reproduce.. I recommend calling.. no no one has done so..
Hi Jess - I've been out of town - I talked to alpha about a month ago and he said he had them ready. - Bill
Well for anyone who is interested in sending Alpha anything, be leary about it, here is my story. I sent them a lower fender piece for 66/67s and the agreement was to copy it and resend me back my original piece. This was back in Feb I believe. After months of waiting for anything I had to contact him and ask hows it going. With hope and trust I believed him. He told me about 3 months ago that it was made and ready for selling, but yet I have not recieved my piece back. He informed me that he will keep mine for remaking purposes and send me a new piece back. Which was NOT what we agreed upon. I was not worried about that fact but I was getting edgy waiting. Now after telling him to hold up to his end of the bargain or I would post how our transaction has transpired, he STILL has not sent me a piece, old or new back.When I wrote him an email about it he said he thought he had shipped one out, but hadn't and would immediately, I was very optimistic about this until now, I believe and was taught that if your word is not worth a **** then you have nothing. I was always taught your word is your bond and if you would not hold to your word then you were not worth listening to. Its a shame that this had to happen, cause from what I saw he makes nice items, but if he cannot be trusted with parts that already hard to come by, NO ONE in the Buick Community will trust him. Sorry I had to be the one to have to experience it first and deal with it, but at least no one sent him their NOS quarters.:rant: :af:
Well its a shame I had hoped by posting this and contacting Allen that he would get me my part, but has not.. So to all of you people who did not send anything cause of being cautious, I understand your cautions now. DO NOT SEND WOLF STEEL ANYTHING, HE WILL NOT DO AS HE SAID.:rant:
I know this is a dead thread but just wanted to inform ALL of you that I never recieved anything from this guy and he did not even contact me back about making this right.. So boycot his ass cause its people like this that make our hobby worse..
Jess, this sucks!!! Have you had any more communication with him? Have you recieved anything yet!!!! Not even the patches?!!!:af: :spank:
nope nothing, he could not even offer me some cash or something to apologize for this, he just quit answering his emails.
well I know this was a dead thread but I will let you know this, the NEW head of Alpha contacted me after all this time and apologized to me .. got my phone number and has called several times and apologized for the way I was treated and offered me a full refund, my part back or a set of fender repair panels for all my troubles.. SO I will say the NEW head of things is a stand up person, we have chatted back and forth in emails as well.. FYI
