In the next few weeks, I will be ordering some replacement parts for the rustoration of my new 73 from AA. I would like to go ahead and order my flares at the same time (I'll have most of the passenger rear quarter panel open anyway (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) ).
Unfortunately, I missed the group buy on the steel flares as I had not yet purchased my car. Are there any others that missed the last steel flare purchase and would like to order some now and save some $$$? |

Count me in (with the usual legal disclaimers, ie. another set of ear-tubes for my 5 year old).

I saw a thread indicating that the group buy was a one time deal. So, I did not pursue it further and ended up finding a good deal on some glass flares and went that route. Perhaps someone else can pick up the torch on this one.

AA posted a list in the vendors area of items that were available at lower $ if you bought in bulk. The downside is some one would have to act as the middle man and repackage and reship as the $'s were for one bulk shipment if I remember correctly.

I have decided to do steel flares after all. If you are all still interested, I would be willing to middleman this and contact George and arrange it. According to the info George posted in the Vendors section, six sets is enough to qualify for the group discount. That means me and 5 more should do it. PM me if still interested. Chuck.

ttt . . . I've e-mailed and spoken to George at AA. The next two people to commit get a set of AA's reproduction steel flares sent directly to your doorstep from AA for ~$650 + shipping. This is the same deal as the last group buy but in a more limited number. So, for those of us that missed the last group buy, here is your chance.

Thanks Doug. That leaves just one more person. Those that are in, please PM me your zip codes and contact info. I will get the shipping quote from George and pass that along to each of you.

There are five us committed to the flare purchase. We have room for one more person. The next person to commit gets to purchase a set of AAs steel reproduction flares for the price of $650 + shipping. This is a deal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

i really shouldn't have posted. when i'm ready for bodywork, i'll prefer more subtle bodywork as i'm not going 5-lug on this car.
