    Your pm box is full.

    Duane, Any chance you can bring my spoiler to the BPG Nats?

    Thanks,

    Duane,

    Do you have any 71 sets left - I have a friend looking for one!

    Alan,
    Yeah, I know my mailbox is full. Every time I clean it out it gets filled within 2-3 days.

    The plan is to have all the spoiler back-orders completed by the BPG Nats. That way I can hand deliver them to the people that want them, and ship the rest. I should also have all the baffles by then.

    Carl,
    I am still in the hole with the orders I have, but if you want me to add one to the list I will.

    Do you still have the insulation for under the 70 hood? If so please let me know how much.

    Thanks

    Duane,

    I was wondering about the status of the spoiler mold and how much progress you are making on your list. I know you're busy with this, just curious.

    Update
    The spoilers are continuing to be made, and the mold is hanging in there. We ended up stopping for a while and adding a few more braces to the backside to help stabilize it.

    Another batch was finished on Sunday, and I am contacting people as I get their parts finished.

    Hopefully the entire list, or at least the part that has been posted here, will be done by the time I leave for the BPG Nats, and many people are opting to have them delivered to the show. It certainly saves on shipping costs.

    The only problem is the list keeps growing, so we will see how long she lasts and do what we can.

    Duane,

    I don't mean to be a pain but I've checked the entire thread and I don't see where a list has been posted, unless you count going back and seeing who and when an item was requested . If there is an actual list, would you mind posting it so we can see where we stand? I understand that there are orders from outside this site, but anything would help. Thanks.

    Joe,
    I don't mean to be a pain either but I have the list, and it includes everyone that has posted here as well as those that sent me PMs, e-mails, talked to me on the phone, saw me at a show, or walked up to my door.

    Everyone that requested a spoiler is on it, IN THE ORDER THAT THEY ASKED FOR IT, period. All times and dates were noted as I added them to my list, and that is how they will be handed out. That means if someone posted here and then 10 people ordered parts between that person and the next that posted here, like at the GSCA Nationals to use as an example, then that is the way it is.

    If everyone ordered the parts from only this thread it would have been simple, especially for me, but unfortunately that is not how it worked out.

    As originally stated these parts are being offered on a "first come-first serve" basis. I am not interested in playing favorites, and if you don't trust that I am doing this fairly, well that is not my problem. I also have no intention of posting my list here. No one has the right to know who bought what or how many they purchased. That is between me and my customers only.

    If you want to know who is last, then currently it would be Herb for a 70 and Chris Robertson for a 71-72. Chris placed an order before, but added another today, so the request for that particular spoiler goes to the back of the list.

    Everyone has to wait his turn, and when I get the order ready I will contact you. Oh, and by the way you are in front of Herb because you ordered yours on 5/25/08 and he ordered his today.

    I have two 72 skylarks with 70 bumpers and grill assemblies I'm not sure which spoiler will work?
    Thanks Bob

    Bob,
    Here is a better answer then the one I PM'd you back.

    If you wanted only the spoilers then either style would work with the 70 front ends.

    If you wanted to also install the baffles, then you would need the 70 only units because the baffles are designed to fit the bumpers and you have to match the spoilers up with the same year baffles.

    Your choice.

    I responded to the post in order to get my name on the list on the first day of May. Duane called me last week at 8:30 at night to let me know everything is ready to ship. I was impressed at his attention to details.
    You should be recieving your call soon! Compare this; I put my bumpers and a few odds and ends into the chrome shop in March, I was told to expect a call sometime in August!!!
