Lakewood 4 point 1st Gen. Camaro
1st, let me take a moment to thank Darrell Cook for this deal coming together. A fine upstanding "brother" in the hobby. Darrell and I run across parts and, if interesting, we share with each other what we find. This roll bar is a bitter/sweet deal. Darrell wanted it, but was unable to get help in transporting this bar closer to him. Funny thing is, I ran across this same bar a few weeks earlier and dismissed it because of the long distance from me. I assumed it was long gone, as well. When Darrell told me how he was trying to get this bar, I commented, then, of my surprise that it was still available and how I had run onto the same item earlier. Darrell finally said he could not find transport and I should get it, if I still was interested. The guy (and I have run across many lately) seemed flaky as he did not answer questions and would not take advance payment. I got a little nervous that I would not follow up on this and let it slip through or slip on by, since I was not getting cooperation from the seller. So I get up yesterday with a wild hair up my butt and called and asked if I could pick up this part. I must have a loose screw and taken leave of my senses (many here could say the same and have done the same), but I drove 3 1/2 hours to Northern Ohio for this and a pair of matching Lakewood slappers thrown in for good measure.
