My point was that there is a middle ground between a roller or rattlecan paint job and the $3000 job, also that there ARE MAACO shops in CT.
1) I agree with you, there is a middle ground.
2) Yup, there is three in the whole state and the one you posted is the closest and just happens to be smack dab in the middle of the worst areas of Hamden.
High crime area would be a vast understatement and I would know this as I have friends who live not far from there. Crackheads even stole a worthless set of rims off the front of the Reliant while it was in a shop getting welding done on the cage.
But it seems you enjoy the problem.
Nope, I'm realistic about prospects so have to explore all options.
Oh, and one more thing...rare Shelby parts? There is rare, and then there is rare and valuable. .
Rare; as in impossible or difficult to find. I never stated a value of any sort.
Why the chip on the shoulder?
If the grill gets broken (they tend to be fragile) or lost I'm S.O.O.L. as there is no replacement and its rare they come up for sale as they only made 750 CSX in 1987.
