RE: Time to throw in the TOWLE!!!!!!
Wow!!!
That's pretty impressive.
One body and he's the 89 king already. Quite a turnaround.
Just think... only a month or so ago and we were considering a
"Towle Ban"
"Where does he get those wonderful toys?"
He MAKES them you idiot!

You probably should be thicker skinned to be in this business.
Let the guy enjoy himself.

RE: Time to throw in the TOWLE!!!!!!
Now see that's a good idea. Rusty here is my take on the whole flame war. I want to see the kit makers show us why their kit is the one to buy. What makes theirs better. Not an easy thing to do since all the bodies all started off from the same car. Then a body was pulled and yet another set of molds were pulled from it. So on and so one. So several generations all the bodies are sad replicas of the original. With a lot of tender love the guys who truly love the car spend days, weeks, months, and yes years trying to bring there car up to standards. Not even to mention the big bucks, but of course the money is relative to the amount you have. So kit makers why is your kit the best and the one to buy. Not why the other guys sucks. Usually trash talk occurs when the talker has nothing good to say about their own product. You know just like Al Gore.
Back to the picture idea. It sort of looks like Rusty and Nate have a bit of a picture war going on and yes I feel like the winner since I love seeing the pictures. The best part is that Rusty and Nate are being really cool. It's not my body is better and your builder sucks. No not at all in fact it seems like we are all very excited for the both of you.
So yeah lets see those pictures.
I’ll also be happy when that Irish Fecker gets his kit.

RE: Time to throw in the TOWLE!!!!!!
im proud to finally get one and i cant say how happy i am with mark and korys easyness to work with and im not going to say anything about the body except what i have seen and you have seen. i think mark did every thing he could to show me my body in every stage and im the one who said i wanted to share (he does what you the buyer wants some people want to keep it on the down low)but not me i dont minded at all ... and i think mine looks good i will see with my own two eyes next week .... so what im saying to if someone had a good deal buying a 89 with some one. let everybody know!!! that goes for all of them .mark, batgod ,i guess don c and who ever else is making them !! it dont make someone a troll or a mouthpiece to tell about your car i paid alot of money so i have the right to say anything i want.. i wanted a someone to give me a strait anwser on a 89!!! one person did it .. i have a 89. he's got a pocket full of cash

RE: Time to throw in the TOWLE!!!!!!
Rusty, I agree that being happy with a product and saying so does not make you a troll or a mouthpiece. What does make a person a troll or mouthpiece is when someone who has never seen a product either talks it up or brings it down based on hearsay. Or when you talk crap about someone else just because you don’t like him or her or throw in BS just to start a fight like in the post above. That's the kinds of things that has gotten some banned and will probably get still others banned. So if you are happy with your kit then go for it, tell us why it's a great kit and a great deal. But unless you also bought a kit from Paul, Don, or whoever then don't say anything bad about theirs, and I can honestly say you have not. In fact you and Nate have both done exactly what I have been begging for. Both of you have given honest opinions about the kit you bought and the car that you are now building. Something that makes me even happier is that you both seem willing to share your experience with CLTC and I hope you will continue to do so. Please share any info you learn as you progress with your build. You know what works and what doesn't. Sort of like the info that Kevin and Justin have provided like the taillight, the wheels, the gas caps, and 1919A4 machine guns. I've tried to show what I've done with items in the hopes of helping others like the exhaust tips, the front turbine, etc. I'm not a builder and I'll never make a penny off of what I have learned or shared. It's kind of sad when I think about it. I'm trying to help you build a cheaper and better car than mine. I guess that's just me. Plenty of other members her have helped me.
So lets hear about your kit. Lets hear the good and the bad. Yes there will be bad, but hopefully very limited. I’m saying that not as a troll but because the molds were taken from a body that was pulled from the same molds as many others and mine without the having the problems fixed. I can see the same problems in the pictures that my body has. None of which are unfixable with a little elbow grease and bodywork.
Oh I meant to ask I don’t see your accessories (canopy, trunk lid, nose cone, gun doors, etc) on the truck. Are they being shipped separately or are they all neatly wrapped up in the shell?
The other side of Jack (the not so tree hugger version) would like to see an all out builder’s war. But I want there to be rules. First each builder who, I will say for now is Paul and Mark and maybe Don would have to show us there product, the molds, etc. Then they would have to tell us why theirs is the best. Things like type material used, how it is made, or thick or reinforced it is and how low the cost it. Once they all have done that then we could have the war. Your kit is crap because of this or that or this and that. But like I said rules and it would have to be between the builders. Once the builders have had their say then there could be comments from people who have actually bought products from the builders (good or bad). But again rules, no tag ins from builders mouthpieces as you put it. But all of that would help the potentional buyer and its just not going to happen. Sadly the truth is that the jams and pokes will keep coming until all the builders but one are banned and all the members but the ones who side with the remaining builder are the only ones left.

RE: Time to throw in the TOWLE!!!!!!
Mark again nice picture. Mark how about a straight on shot of the body, sort of like the shot in the video only a little higher.
Rusty, good deal. It's like with Paul and I. I've heard people talk crap about Paul and because we are friends I do get offended but from a business side of it I just consider it BS. Why? Well because Paul has been great to me, well even better than that. He has shared some trade secrets with me and gave me one heck of a deal on a Batcycle kit. He even through in a Forever wheel cover and a bunch of extra gifts. Does that make me Paul's mouthpiece? I sure hope not. Now if I decide to buy a 66 or other kit from Paul, Kevin, Don, or even Mark do I hope to get the same great deal and treatment, I would sure hope so. Don't get excited guys it's just a thought.... My wife would probably leave me if I did.
Now on the other side I don't typically say bad things about anyone. Maybe I should tell you all the problems I've had with my kit. Heck, I'm still having problems. But the guy who I go it from was really a nice guy. When I wasn't happy with the canopy he sent me another at no cost. The same for a side doors. Now the body is thin and I have to reinforce it. I wish it were thicker. I've considered buying a new front clip but I’m worried it wouldn't line up so I'm going to add more fiberglass and metal tubing to it. Should I bash him and say his kit is crap? Well maybe. But that's just not me. Kory said that he used to work for my builder. Kory even said that it was he that named it the kit The Gothic Avenger. Do I buy it, well I'll just leave that alone?
Bottom line is Rust and Nate too and who ever else gets a kit. You will be happy with it. Why? Well hopefully because you do truly love the car and you can see by the problems with it. Weather it be thin or thick, warped or twisted you will love it. Trust me within the first few days you'll drop in a bucket or lawn chair just to see how it feels.

RE: Time to throw in the TOWLE!!!!!!
I think Paul once said the problem with Mark has always been the people he associate with:Kory and Brett.
I mean really, who follows people through other forums to bash'em? from 66 board to Justin's to here....

Fred & Charles is Kory.
Bat-1 is Brett

Interesting thing about this site and about the owner of the shop Great guy by the way. After seeing this post and calling the owner of the shop he said that XXXXX has not built a Cobra Nor worked for him.
That XXXXX Just hangs out in his shop and that they put up with him.
Also yes he did say that he made the molds of a 60's car and that they have only pulled one body and that this one body has never been completed either. Nor has XXXXX even completed his 89 car yet.
Hunters has some great cobras and i would recommend him highly as he seems very knowledgeable about the car.
And despite the misrepresentation and lies by XXXXX he is not a representitive or an employee of this shop.
The owner was laughing at the thought of XXXXX working for him and said he would have to have a talk with XXXXX the next time he stopped in to hang out.
The funny thing about this is that he says he has not sold any bodies for XXXXX nor pulled any other bodies besides the original body once the molds had been completed. and XXXXX has a deal with them to pull
all bodies for them. so i guess he would be in the know if there had been any additional bodies pulled of the 60's car.
Mods i know that you do not want flame wars on your board or trouble.
But when you have someone such as this continually misrepresenting himself and the truth I would hope that you would leave this information up to show what a liar XXXXX truly is.

Keep in mind this is the same Charles Kombs that constantly emailed both Justin and Paul(to ask for his kit and to get in him trouble).

RE: Time to throw in the TOWLE!!!!!!
Must be above my head I still don't get it. Anyway I was talking about Kory downing DonC and calling Paul a crook based on what he had heard. I don't think I've ever heard Justin comment on anyone's kits without having seen them like Dan R's and Nate's and now he is going to see Kevin's. Of course I am getting older and forgetful. I do know that there is an ongoing war between Justin and Mark's posse. (But I don't think that's over anyone's product.
