Guess what...YOU got the same parts that you would have gotten from TAMARAZ.

All the repop sheet metal for these old cars is made by the same vendors.

I hope his fenders are in better condition and the deal was proper.One of the fenders I got had clearly been reworked by a body hammer at the bottom. But the bad one was not stamped properly, it was wavey at the body line. The wavey one needed alot more rework than the one that had been ""repaired'' from the inside,(before I got it) all of these details were discussed with the manager of Tamraz.

The people at Tamraz still have not contacted me about the poor quality of the fenders that I received. I think they are satisfied because they got their money. The sad thing is they lost a customer (me) and in the long run that will be worse for them.
Good Luck if you order from them....

I have purchased aftermarket panels from several places over the years- you CAN NOT expect perfect fit, as the car you need the panels for will not be perfectly straight if it's been driven ever.

A 1970 anything will have all kinds of particular quirks unique to it that can not ensure a perfect fit from any aftermarket part, be it fender, floor, sail panel, etc. Bodies flex over time, so the new panel will not have built in adjustments to the flex your particular car has received.

As mentioned, almost all sheet metal suppliers sell pieces made from the same manufacturers. Buying from one place vs. another should be about service, price, and comfort level. You're likely going to get the same part no matter where you order it from.

Tod I have no doubt that you are right about where they come from. I can say that the parts I recieved were packaged well and had no damage and the service was #1. I think that is the biggest complaint Bix has no customer service. Ausleys has been great every time I have t with them.

I asked about quality and fit . The salesman said we have had Zero problems, never ,ever, great quality. I explained what a big statement that was. He said zero problems or complaints. So the fenders I got one was stamped /manufactured wrong and the other was clearly repaired on the inside bottom with a body hammer. When I tried to resolve the issue I was treated like dirt. And zero resolution.
So....... misrepresented the product (fraud) and did not deal with the issue properly. That is the sign of a bad ran company. I do believe the two fenders that I got were returned to Tamraz before I got them because of poor quality,than they sold them to me....
The truth is I spend alot on money on cars and Tamraz treated me like a POS. They will get no more of my money, and to any one that uses them, ask about the quality of there sheet metal, if they say 'zero problems " hang up the phone and send me a message in this forum
Good Luck Guys

I responded to another tread on oldsmobile classics ,and they asked about any bad experiences with Tamraz, I told them about mine.

Tamraz
 

No word from Tamraz, the Classic Olds website also had some comments about my experience, interesting stuff

just checking if anyone has used Tamraz
 

Has anyone used Tamraz for any parts recently.Just curious about the customer service, and correctness of the order. Had a local guy tell me yesterday he has had some issues also. Not enought to not use them anymore, just slow to get the correct parts after they gave him the wrong ones.
Thanks Jeff
