Re: Check this out
That is some final price! Probably could had a professional sign-maker fabricate two or three of them for that money! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Re: Check this out
I have one of those signs and from what I have been told, the price on that sign was decent.

Damm you were close [/ QUOTE ] Not necessarily, that's ebay's proxy bidding at work. The high bidder could have hit it with $10,000 and he'd still only pay 10 bucks more than the next highest bid...that is until the prices really start to soar and the bidding increment goes up. A cool piece for sure, but I wouldn't want to trust my postman with it. |

That is some Incredible Craftsmanship Norm! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif
I've seen Camaro 2 sided lights.Not sure if any of the others were too.There are a few for sale today around the Midwest. They were made in the mid 60's for most of the cars back then.They good ones still retain their date stamps to show their timeline. Caprice-Impala-Chevy II-Chevelle-Corvair-Corvette-Camaro. I have the Chevelle-Camaro-Corvette lights here. I didn't really want to bid anymore then I did.He did say it has a 10" crack,and chipping,which happens with these. I agree,if I won it,I would NOT even consider having it UPS shipped. I am going to Lincoln,Nebraska soon,so I would have picked it up personaly then. I know that I-80 Journey well.9 hours one way exactly for me,& I enjoy it.I call it the Manure Run...HELLO IOWA! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif |
Re: Check this out
OK guys I have to say something being I am retired from UPS! as long as an item is packaged properly It does not hurt to ship UPS.PROPERLY on an item like that light don't mean a elcheapo cardboard container with news paper wrapped around it.POOR PACKAGING is the cause of most damages! but again there are some pieces mishandled by UPS employees and get damaged.You have to realize that packages shiped through UPS,Fed EX,USPS and others are loaded into trailers.If your package is not packaged properly and winds up on the bottom or near the bottom! well you guessed it,probably damaged!And it doesen't matter if it is UPS,FED EX,USPS or whoever!UPS is an excellent shipper and very reasonable rates,plus I still have stock in the Company (LOL)

Re: Check this out
Come on over you may be surprised(LOL)!I did wind up with a lot of extra parts over the years,just about enough to build one complete car.But it sort of looks like that Cadillac that Johnny Cash sang about,im sure most of you guys have heard that song before https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif Just kidding that is one thing you NEVER NEVER did is take anything from UPS.I remember one time that a box of bubble gum busted open and about 5 or 6 people picked some up and started chewing it.About 2 hours later all of them were fired for stealing!THAT IS A 100% TRUE STORY! UPS did not tolerate anyone taking ANYTHING AT ALL!I never actually had much to do with the package delivery end of the business because I worked in the Plant Engineering Department,we were responsible for the Facility's and Equipment that were used to sort the parcels.I really have to say that UPS does a great job in protecting packages shipped through the Company.I am serious in stating that most packages are damaged because of being packaged improperly.As far as lost packages it does happen when you consider the millions of packages that are handled by them daily. And with the new tracking technology of today things have gotten a lot better.But I will tell you they spend millions in trying to insure that all packages make it to there destination on time, intact and undamaged.That being said do consider UPS for your shipping needs in the future because I need some new parts and can't afford for the stock to drop(LOL)It doesent matter if you ship through FEDEX ,USPS,UPS,ETC because all packages are loaded in the trailers the same way.FROM THE BOTTOM TO THE TOP and if your's goes on the bottom and if it is not packaged properly most likely it will be damaged!Just remember that when you ship anything through a large commercial carrier.I WOULD SEND YOU GUYS A PICTURE OF MY CAR BUT YOU WOULD LAUGH AT IT AND SOME OF YOU MAY RECOGNIZE SOME OF THE PARTS!lol it sort of looks like a 1967,68,69,70 NickeyMotionHarrellYenko,ChevelleCamaroNovaCorvett e https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif
