Last week I had a gt grill for sale @volkssled inquired about the part.
He gave me his zip code and I got a shipping quote he agreed on price. Next day I go back to post office and they quoted me double the price for Same package (wasn’t cheap) I argued with the lady but of course she won. I went ahead and shipped it anyway. I pm volkssled ask him if he was willing to pay for the extra shipping and he sent me the $ . He didn’t have to but he did. He’s a new member here and I want to thank him publicly For my mistake.

Nice recognition. He has been getting a mixed greeting here so it is nice to send a welcoming note like this.

That's nice to hear! I always get screwed with shipping. Various reasons but for me, its guesstimating the size of the box and weight. You get to UPS and its a whole different price. |

Went back next day and it was double .different employee. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Been waiting a long time ! For a g t grille to come up for sale
Almost as long as I’d been waiting on the chrome bumpers ( got those now too) Even with shipping added : at 300 bucks total I felt like I was Robbing sb914 So yeh I sent him the balance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) Can’t wait to get it on the car I think In 15 years I’ve seen 1 other 914 With this grille Now i all I need is a decent mechanic, a renn shifter , tangerine shift linkage and a Sarasota or Saratoga top and I’ll be in heaven ( if anybody has any of these , let me know , I’m good for it $ ) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

Tip: Get the WAS top from 914rubber. It fits better, and uses the stock seals instead of NLA ones from who-knows-where.
