I RECENTLY BOUGHT A 65 CHEVELLE SS. IT IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE. THERE ARE A FEW ITEMS I WOULD LIKE TO IMPROVE ON. I LIVE IN MISSOURI. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME THEIR OPINION ON WHO TO BUY REPLACEMENT PARTS FROM. THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT COMPANIES TRYING TO SELL RESTO PARTS. I DON'T WANT ANY CRAP PARTS.
THANKS FOR ANY AND ALL INPUT, RUSS

I too bought some chrome moldings from OPG, I purchased the rear panel mouldings from my 1968. Not only were the edges so rough when they cut the aluminum, but they had them painted incorrectly ! They had the white/black switched. When I called them about, they just shrugged their shoulders and told me to return them. You might think that if they are going to reproduce a part on their own they would get it right. But if you read their catalog, it says " Quality GM products" which is a bunch of crap !!
Here you go OPG...Here is listening to the customer about the quality of your parts and the quality of your customer service ! NO ONE likes to be called "DUDE" or "DOG" by your sales people. The customer might not always be right, but WE ARE THE CUSTOMER.....Thank you for listening.
