Sooooo frustrating!

Needed a few bits and bobs, ordered quick from LMC truck, you get to end of website and have to pay, there are no shipping options. Then get told you pay and in 48 hours they contact you to ship. Did that and now Red tape. They want a photo ID with your address on to prove it’s you. Try explain that SA Id’s and drivers don’t have home address on??? Zero practical wisdom... they were paid already.... Now to get my money back.

So I go to Ecklers to order same parts, get to end Yay you can check out with Pay Pal so much more efficient.... get to shipping, no options to SA at this time Faaaaaaaaaaark!!!!!

And we’re back to breathing exercises 🙈🙉🙊

Guess there’s no chance to make Cars in the Park this year
Get a MyUs address...works well for larger items

try these guys: www.postbox-courier.com - I use them all the time from the UK and they are super-efficient, friendly and not too costly...same as MyUS you get a US postal address, but there is no sign-up fee or annual charge, just charges per shipment. Example of their service: ordered a tablet from the UK, it arrived in 3 days to my door but the screen was cracked. They came back same day, picked it up and two days later the CEO himself got in his car and brought the replacement to my door - customer service levels rare in this country!

Car is in for upholstery and the leather has finally arrived. Sound deadening complete. We’re getting there slowly

BTT,

I really like the look of that bench seat. Did you ever consider building a bench with a bit more support?
With that 383, you might slide around a bit on that flat bench. :D
