<VV> Re: The Peck Order and Sammy Salmon (humor?)

Hey Chuck, You and your body shop owner seem to be on the same
wave length now but neither of you communicated very well. If he had
the car for two months, why did you wait two months to find a paint code?
If he had two months to ask you for a paint code, why did he wait for two
months to follow up??? <GGG>  My wife was an elementary school teacher
for 32 years and for many of those years a simple sign sat prominently on her
desk for all her pupils to observe:

  " Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine "

Yes, you and your painter were saved by a group who pride themselves on being
helpful and knowledgeable........................but.......... I would 
think that your Corvair
may suffer if both of you don't pay a little more attention to detail and 
communication.
Please tell me you have joined CORSA and any local Corvair club or a 
general collector
car club.
