Found this last night. I guess someone isn't happy with the work they had done at GYC.
Have fun reading. Lack of paragraphs his;
Rex M. Wilson II Runs, overspray, tape lines things assembled wrong, things left off, Body lines that are off. He acts like because the car had a lot of filler and the sheet metal work underneath was "cobbled together" that it's ok for them to send me back a poorly assembled,
poorly prepped, poorly painted car. He said the car is a thousand times better than it was. I'm sure that the welds and the amount of filler in the car are better now. I understand that the car had a lot of issues under the skin. He says since it is a repair and not a restoration he only has to to make it as good as it was before the accident. He thinks it's better. I told him on the phone the first time I talked to him that the whole car seemed to have a layer of filler over it. I guess he assumed that since the car had these issues that it was just a big POS and that I would be happy with whatever came back. The fact is that the car may have had issues under the skin, you would not have ever guessed it looking at it. The right front fender was ugly, I freely admit, I was hit ten days after I bought the car and it was quickly repaired for a show and the paint that had been mixed didn't match and there was trash in the paint because we painted it outside and finished at about 10:30 at night the day before the show. I had not had time to refinish it before I was hit the second time. The deck lid had been repainted because a Go wing had been installed and removed and inthe right light you could kinda see where the wing had been and the color was very slightly off but, hardly noticeable. The rest of the car had one of the nicest paint jobs I've seen. The car was assembled properly. It looked great and I had no complaints. I knew it had been hit it the right front when I bought it but bought it anyway because it was hard to tell and it was the best looking '70 Charger I had ever seen in person. The paint was like glass. Every body shop I took it to to get estimates on the fender complimented the shop that restored it for doing such a beautiful job on the paint and body and that they really knew what they were doing. a couple evan admitted they probably couldn't make the fender look as good as the rest of the car. Now the car has so many quality issues I don't know where to begin. There is a twelve inch run in the drivers door and a six inch one in the passenger front fender. The passenger quarter top body line has tape line all the way down it and ends at the door with a 1 inch run. The deck lid has waves in it but was comparable to how it was so, I guess I could have lived with that. I half an inch body gap at the front of the deck lid that can't be removed is not acceptable. The deck lid doesn't close properly at the right corner and would not be able to be adjusted out without some work on that quarter panel. The trunk light switch is missing the wires were roolled up and painted green. The rear speaker looks like a chia pet because of all the metal shavings stuck to the magnet it has green overspray all over it. The rear window defroster is about to fall off and has green over spray all over it. He trued to blame that on the poorly done paint work on the car before. It was not. I know, I had been in the trunk before looking at the defroster because I hadn't seen one on a Charger before and I was curious. Neither quarter panel is shaped properly and the left side of the car is wider, sail panel to body top crease than the right. There is trash in the paint, pin holes in the body filler and paint. The left door scoop has a chip at the top and doesn't sit flush at the bottom. The rear seat back sits an inch above the rear speaker shelf. There is primer overspray on the A pillar interior trim. They painted the power window wiring in the door jamb. They installed front outboard seat belts (reatactable) in the rear and vice versa. The rear interior quarter trim and carpet are not under the tim piece like they should be. This was something I fixed on the car, literally the night before the accident. There is still a buckle in the firewall that I specifically told him was there and evan asked him about later and he said was fixed. He said they replaced the drivers floor pan. They did not. It still has a buckle and some new dents where someone has been hitting it with a hammer. The right rocker is a half an inch higher than the fender but the fender is evan everywhere else. The left exhaust tip fell off in the road the second day back. They were welded on before. now they are clamped. I had a wing nut on the air cleaner I liked because I thought it kinda looked like the old Dodge emblem. it was in the ashtray and factory correct one installed but, here's the funny part, I had a factory replica battery that was an Absorbent glass Mat AGM battery internally instead of lead acid. It's gone and in it's place is the cheapest looking battery I've ever seen in my life. The parking brake lever release handle is bent at a 90 degree angle straight down. it was not bent in the accident. There is a crack in the glove box door. The rear window interior trim does not sit flush and they tried to glue it in place. Every screw in the front headliner trim is at an angle other than straight and they are oversized. The right front fender inner liner that keeps debris out of the door jamb is missing. the jack was in the car when it left. The base is all they sent back. The door panels had obviously been damaged in the accident they did nothing with those. The gas gauge worked before the accident but doesn't now. The headlight motor worked before the accident. The headlights were on when I was hit. They closed when I shut them and the car off after I was hit. The next time I turned them on the doors came up but would not go back down. The month I drove it after the accident, They would alway's come up but I would have to manually close them. Now they don't come up or go down. There is a crack in the dash pad on the passenger side I put there having to crawl in and out of the passenger side fir a month while The insurance companies decided what to do. I think that should be covered. Every time I look at the car I see something wrong I didn't notice before. I know there are things I'm forgetting here. I'll post them as I think of them and as I notice more and I know I will.
