Ms Grumpy ,we got tagged by a guy at one of the hotels driving a minivan. He tried to squeeze between the hotel wall and our vert and scratched our rear bumper on the corner .I have not yet decided if Im going to persue repairing it ,I want to try to polish it out first. The guy called me tonight and was very sorry over it but wants me to do what makes it right for us. Whats right might be to polish it up as best I can and let him off free and clear .

You are such a nice guy flash. It could have been a lot worse, like grumpy just said, it could have been more than just the bumper. I always tell people, it is the little things that give the car character.

John,
I know of a bumper chrome place here in Atlanta...VERY close to my work.
They've done many Chevelle bumpers for me in the past...reasonably priced too.
Let me know and I can drop it off & pick up for 'ya.

I'm in the process of replacing the dash, dash pad and stereo in mine. I have to pick up a few items from NPD on the way home to finish it off. I should have it done by the weekend, pics to follow of the carnage. My wife about flipped when she saw what was left after I tore everything out.

I didnt even get to look at our Chevelle today ,working after work trying to clean up our rental property that our previous tennants destroyed. I have never smelled anything as bad as what our place smelled like with the rotted food left in the fridge and mold and mildew from a leaky water pipe.

Why didn't you tell us you had a rental home. 3 bedrooms ? might consider moving.

Actually backed my car 1/2 way out of garage so we could get into the rafters.

Ms Grumpy ,you would not want to live in my rental house at the moment as Im still trying to get rid of FLEAS .It had a major infestation ,after 2 months of bombing them Im almost ready to start cleaning the place and making repairs .I thought seriously about donating the place to Habitat For Humanity or to the local fire dept to train during burning but thought I would try one more time with it. I fired my management company yesterday after telling them Im tired of redoing my property every year when it becomes vacant .This is the worst Ive ever seen in my 18 years of being a landlord.
