Sometimes the end is never insight ,
however it is always promised to be
"NO WORRIES MATE NEXT WEEK"
I cancelled an order for an interior after 12 months of delays.

Sorry but twelve months of string alongs is incompetence not busyness.
What really makes me angry is I let myself get strung along for so long in the hope of saving some $$.
Two choices really go to Vintage they are very helpful and efficient if not cheap or buy from the US IPS West, Cip1 and others are efficient and
cheap and much faster tan George.
Shame really that the Aussies havent got it together. Mitchell

Funny thing - I was talking to Dylan the Dubber at the Cooperabung hill climb this afternoon and he was telling me about how he has been getting the
"next week mate" line for a few months with an exhaust, and we mentioned this thread.
It would have only been 6 or 7 minutes later that a bloke I know with a replica vintage mercedes (something a bit like Cruella De Ville's - it has
beetle front blinkers on the guards, and elephant feet tail lights amongst other things) saw me as he was walking past and said "what is the story
with George from CVD - he is sending me some US style front blinkers 'next week mate' for 6 months now, & I still don't have them".
Dylan & I looked at each other and burst out laughing.
From your ole' mate Jeff

I've said this before but if he's that busy get some staff, he must be losing more customers trying to keep to his one man band theme. I know I no
longer spend my money there no matter what a 'nice guy' he is.

The problem I have with him is honesty, if he was up front to start off with and said it'll be in in a few months that would be fine... But he just
strings you along with the next Wednesday crap. If he has it in stock you'll generally get it but if he doesn't, don't bother.

Wow - more patient than I'd be. After two years I'd be thinking Letter of Demand or State Consumer Affairs.
That said the couple of times I've bought stuff from Classic it's been simple as and arrived within a few days.
Must be luck of the draw I guess...
