Re: George Laurie - Lenses

[Imperial <imperial@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I can relate, having waited nearly a year for my '62 wagon lenses.....BUT, still I would buy from him again---where else would I go to get perfect reproductions?  And not really a pain compared to, say, scouring swap meets around the country, checking ads, etc.

I'm glad your wait had a happy ending at least.  :)

  I can't believe it, the lenses showed up today.  They are 1962 Dodge 
  park/turn lenses, and they are beautiful.  Show quality for sure.

  I don't think I'd order from George again though.  What a pain.
