A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Here's my twisted suggestion: you order your hoses from Gbody, I'll order my rims from World of whatever. We'll have cameras follow us around as we become unglued when our stuff doesn't arrive. Then, we'll get rich and we can make our own stuff. Or, we can hash it out on TB for private Buick entertainment. I really think it will work. Than the SOB's that are screwing us will finally take notice. Ah, probably not.

only thing is that if gbody had the oem style hoses I wanted, I'd order them.  Brian has always took good care of me over the years and even went out of his way to help out on some of my bizarre request.  but I'm not going to go defending him, cause there is no doubt some folks have some legit issues with him.  Some of them really really stink, no doubt.  :(     
the tb crowd being a small community has its good advantages, and certainly its bad.

Just checked the site, there is a picture of them in the "Air Intake and fuel delivery" but no item for sale.  I would email Glen at glen@nos4gn.com and ask if he is getting more.  I have a set and they look just like the originals and are a high quality product.

Although I haven't ordered from Gbodyparts.com in a while, I'm pretty saddened to hear this about Brian.  He has always done me right.  The last time I ordered from him, I did have to call him a week later to ask where my order was, but he got it shipped right away.  I have always trusted Brian and I'm hoping that this is a very short lived rut that he is in.  .

I'm going to place an order with Gbodyparts.com next week.  I'll let you all know how it goes....

Thanks Mark. I e-mailed Brian with my thoughts, maybe see how Bob-L-L makes out.
