    Scott,

    I checked the red trim pieces and could not find any build numbers.

    The chrome L-shaped trim piece shows the number 2732.

    Thanks...Jim

    I severely doubt the screwdrivers will be delivered timely

    I have been waiting for over one year for 330 screwdrivers

    I will be making the molds in the future.

    Jim I did mention to you about the vendor and producing the parts, disappointed with your ad.
    Misleading about the screwdriver delivery.

    No desire to engage in mudslinging Tom. I have been in regular communication with Jeannine and I am confident she will deliver.

    Nice to see that PR came through for you. It is worthy of note that the repro screwdrivers are visibly different to originals. While the number of flutes is correct, original screwdrivers have their steel portion penetrate much deeper into the plastic handle than the repros. I suspect that Tom S. will address this in his moldings but the PR screwdrivers are close but by no means perfect.

    But, under current concours provisions, they apparently DO NOT HAVE TO BE PERFECT ORIGINALS OR EVEN PERFECT REPRODUCTIONS.

    I would imagine though, if your were attempting to win a concours preservation award, an original or perfect reproduction might help you in the points.

    One might expect for the absurd price of $8,000.00 (did I read that correctly?) that it would be perfect....crazy-no two ways about it!

    You read that incorrectly. The kit price is $6500. Kit with parts and factory parts manual is $8000.

    I owe you a public apology . You were correct on the market for the tool kits and I was dead wrong. My bad....will keep my big fat mouth shut from now on! Thanks

    Thanks champtc. No worries. Sentiment that toolkit prices are getting crazy is easy to understand. After all, you can buy a new Corolla for the price of some of the older kits. Best...Jim
