I need a favor from someone if possible - embarrased to ask
« on: June 09, 2009 - 10:52:27 AM »
I need a favor from someone if possible - embarrased to ask.
If anyone here is going to Carlisle can do me a favor, I would really appreciated it.
If you are there and walking the swap area and spot a seller that has an E body dashpad core for sale, I need one.
I need one that is not rusted out and very inexpensive if possible. I need to purchase a pad for myself for my car and don't want to pay the core charge to Ultimate Rides, yes I need to pay the core charge for my own pad, they do not even give me a break in the cost.  :pullinghair:  They will be at Carlisle selling there pads and if you find one for me all you would have to do is take it to them and drop it off for me.
At this time I am also checking with an existing customer of mine that live near there office and he is checking to see if he can locate one for me so there is a possibility that I may not need one at all from Carlisle.

I need a core myself so I can get a dash pad for my car also.
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development

I have a core, but I live in Norway. Don't know if it's any help. It's for a Cuda.

If you send them your pad with core to be restored, you have to send another core as well? :clueless:

That sounds bogus!

Dad and I will be there with the chally and my charger.  Charger will be on display inside the retro dealership display.  Shoot me a PM with your cell or home number and we  will be more than happy to check out the swap meet for ya.  If we find anything we will give you a call.

Nick,
I think I have an extra core I will just give you. I am going to Carlisle so, if you want I can take it to the Ultimate Rides guys if you think they will remember that it was for you???

ultimate rides has bought 24 pads from me over the last few years , and good cores are hard to find .what happens is many people wont send in a pad so they can keep theres in the car till swap out and just toss out the old one later .this leaves ultimate rides short on pad cores . i would be careful not to dump on venders theres easier and better paying jobs out there . i remember when the pads first came out every one was elated . i would find it hard to ask some one to chase parts for me just to save a c note but thats just me . :2cents:

NICK,

I have 2, both AC. One I refinished with the idea of re-foaming it. I can strip that one if you like, or the other. The other one has a few rust spots..but not bad. I'll take pics if U like.
Make me an offer. I am always good with trades...

I think you took me the wrong way, I was not dumping on them, I was only stating a fact that even though I sell more dashpads then Year 1 and Legendary combined, I too have to pay for a core charge if i do not have a core to send in to them. If you think that I was trying to screw someone to do something for me for free, you are dead wrong again, I never said that so please do not assume what your eyes may read, you are wrong and I don't appreciate that. I have already contacted a member and offer to purchase his core before I read your post. Also since you have assumed that I am trying to save a buck by not sending mine from my car, I really don't have to tell you what I am doing with mine but i will, I am giving my original pad or core or whatever you would like to call it to a customer of mine that cannot afford to pay for a corecharge be cause he is disabled and out of work.
  :stomp:

thanks everyone, this thread is over.......  :blah:
