the BACK STORY:
Around 1984 Mr. Ken May the Director of Warehousing & Distribution for all of General Motors (now retired) provided me with the actual GM Blueprints for Radiator, Fan Shroud & Air Dam Seals. We used these to reproduce these discontinued GM parts. Later we realized that zyp the gyp was ordering these parts wholesale to copy them. Literally making a repro from a DocRebuild repro. Justin Abbot the Lap Dog for David Walker at zyp the gyp has repeatedly stated that I claim invention of these parts. These are dirty liars. I have never claimed to have invented these parts. I have claimed that I was the first to reproduce these parts. And we have the only accurate reproductions. Incidentally Justin Lap Dog Abbott did not even start working at zyp the gyp until a decade after we brought these to the marketplace. Apparently he is a clairvoyant Lap Dog.
David Walker claims the high road i.e. silence - that means he cannot dispute the facts. I surreptitiously ordered some of zyp the gyps seals and they are poor imitations not blueprint authentic. They remind me of the Assembly Manuals that have been photocopied over & over. The complex pattern air dams are the worst, and the most visible.
TIP: it you see a zip part number that begins with a Z that is one of their own offerings a zip repro - or rather on my view a re-poop. Unfortunately, for you the consumer there is no knowledge of how these parts were reproduced. zyp the gyp is a money grubbing liar & phony laughing all the way to the bank with your money. But they are so polite. Bernie Madoff was the epitome of politeness running his scam.
