Discounted Lenses for Sale - Limited Quantities
« on: January 23, 2009, 01:38:50 PM »
It's time for me to make another payment to the company that made my molds and lenses.

A couple more big installments and the loan will finally be paid off! 

It's hard out there for everyone right now (including me).

I'm selling 10 sets of parking lenses and 10 sets of reverse lenses at reduced costs to members of V8Buick.com and 65GS.com.

This will help you and help me make my loan payment.

Parking Lens & Gasket set - $85.00 + $6.00 S&H

Reverse Lens & Gasket set - $35.00 + $4.00 S&H

Buy one set or buy them all, but they will not be available at this price once the 10 sets sell out.

Many members here have bought these and are extremely satisfied with appearance and quality.

You can read more about them on this thread ---->  http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=134556  or at www.DamnGoodAutoParts.com

Contact me directly to reserve your parts and I'll send you payment information (PayPal or Check) but remember its first come, first served.

Thanks,

Chris

Come on Guys .

This is why there are not as many parts available for our Skylarks/GS cars.

It takes a big leap of faith for someone to go out on a limb to do a project . Not to mention a sizeable $$$ and time investment .

So if you need them and can , step up to the plate .

We need to keep parts projects rolling.

Chris,

As I said before, the three sets of each that you sold me before are very nice quality and I feel that they are worth the $$ spent.

And I can still keep those NOS ones on the shelf.

So , for anyone else that is in need of lenses ,  don't hesitate , these are definately 'QUALITY ' parts.

Chris, I initially replied to you over on V8, but I'll continue here. ;D My payment with a nice photo of Ben will be sent tomorrow or Thursday from somewhere in the US Midwest. I am headed to Oklahoma for a Friday morning delivery.

Thank you for stepping up with these much needed parts.

Thanks everyone.. I'm down now to just my last few that I put out there for board members.

I'm going to hit Ebay and the BCA once I have some more reverse lenses in stock.

Thanks again guys!

Now that I think about it , I don't remember ever seeing you advertise these in the Bugle.

Good luck Chris,

Loren,

I was waiting (still am) on another shipment of parking lenses and gaskets before putting them on the BCA.

I'm nearly through my original shipment and I'm now stocked up on gaskets.

I just wanted to make sure nothing goes on back order and I make any of the BCA folks mad. 

You should be seeing something in the coming months.

Chris, my payment went into the USPS system this past Saturday morning from the huge and thriving megalopolis of Onawa, Iowa (sarcasm intended ;D)

Do you know just how difficult it is to locate a USPS mail box?? It seems that they like to hide their Post Offices on side streets too. I went through several dozen small towns last week, not a Post Office to be found on the main streets.

Tom... didn't you hear?

The USPS is facing a $6 Billion dollar debt this year.

They are starting to get desperate to reduce costs and have even gone as far as looking to cut Saturday mail delivery.

I suppose this was the logical next step after "laying off those 60,000 mail boxes" didn't seem to impact things much.    ;D

Sorry guys.. bad economy humor (if there is such a thing?) I'll go back to joining the rest of the nation now and resume crying.   :'(

Thanks for the good chuckle Chris. ;D I did, in fact hear about some cost cutting measures being considered by USPS, but it was cutting Tuesday service. ???

Let's hope that my envelope makes the journey to Lima in a safe and expedient manner.

BTW, if there's anything left after you pay shipping, please consider it a small donation to maintain this site.  8)
