I am thinking that this BS has gone on long enough...

We are adults here...so lets act like them now...

I know Charley...and I know Jacquie...and what I do know is that they are both fine people.

The majority of the stuff said here could have been taken to PM's or...maybe even not even been said at all.

Why doesn't everyone give it a rest for the night...and take a deep breath?

I am not accusing anyone of anything... just giving my perspective on the money thing.
I run a large business where $150 is about 1% of an avg invoice. If someone stiffs me for $150 I will ask them about it everytime they call... it's not the damn money it's the principal. I prefer not to do business with someone I can't trust to pay their bills.

I will say that Jacquie has no problem paying people...even when they flat out refuse to take payment ( looked at a car for her out here and wanted no money)...as it's just cool to do it for a friend...she still insisted and told me she'd be mad at me.

I've already had Annie hit me because I "fibbed" to her and Rick...I didn't need Jacquie's wrath as well...LOL

I am done as well...other than to say...Andy, I will be practicing on the go cart track (eventually) so you better watch out

As an outsider from all of this let me get this right.

1)Jerry got the color wrong on a car for Jacquie!!

2)Jerry got the BJ car wrong!!!!

3)Jerry got something wrong for 704EVER!!!

Again as an outsider to all involved, who would hire such a "service" to form an opinion about a car. What makes Jerry the head master on a camaro anyway. I am not sure. I mean what "makes" him someone who is supposed to be an authority on camaros any differant than someone else that is very knowledgable about camaros. I am not trying to ruffle any feathers, I am just trying to understand and learn. No offense is meant or dirrected at anyone.

I have a question, are the draft and final reports noted as such (draft only, final report)?

704ever..... You apparently are not over whatever pissed you off about Jerry in some past life. You appear to have used this site and issue as a podium for some past grudge. If you are going to slam someone, please stick to facts. I'm trying to moderate here and you come bashing based on something we know nothing about. You have managed to make yourself the focus of the thread and the person I am getting complaints about. Don't make me use my vast amounts of Grand Yenko.net Poohbah power to stifle you on this site.

I'm not siding with Jerry. I am just trying to make sense of this mess and not let anyone get trashed over something we know nothing about.

That is what I was also wondering. If the car owner had a "draft" with no indication of such why would they bother paying for a "final" or even showing it if the draft looked fine and gave a more favorable description ( no mention of rebody, restamp or resto drive train)?

The documents shown online as the three page report looked very official and matter of fact. They gave no indication of pending verification or the ever present underwriters reveiw.
I respect Jerry since he has said that it is true that there is no way to tell if the hidden vins were changed or if the car is a rebody when the metal work is perfect.

This seems to be just another lesson for us all.

Stick a fork in it.

Not true. I believe 90% of the rebodies out there can be determined provided you are able to remove interior parts and examin other dated chassis components.

You cannot remove a trim tag and put it back without visible signs that it had been off the car at one time.
Study trim tag rivets from underneath the dash instead of the engine bay side and you'll see what I am talking about .
