Default Re: Hats off to all the restoration shops!!!

The last time I went to a wrecking yard was spring 2007 and all I bought out of there were nuts and bolts,frame,sheet metal and engine fastners. In all from this and other i had amassed I had about 300 nuts,bolts etc. Had everything cleaned and plated the appropriate finish. They are all sorted and ready for the next restoration of freshen up on an existing one.
I feel your pain on repro parts. I have thrown out my fair share of stuff that just wont fit.
No point returning it,they will just send more stuff that wont fit.
