By the way, if you buy a replacement part from either a major parts store such a Advance or an OE like GM and it is made in China the markup is approx 800%. That's just the economics of the business. The quality passes all of their specs and testing. Sincerely Fred Kanter Kanter AutoProducts Boonton NJ Posted on: 2010/11/16 5:56

And, Frank, sorry about the windshield washer mistake, I did say that it was on the production slip. I forgot about that! Darned this memory! By "quality" I mean how well do your products hold up and if they are made of real steel plated in chromium, glass, no plastic (except on items that would have that), etc. Thanks everyone!

My point is that we own antique American cars, not foreign ones. To put Chinese parts on a Packard is to pervert it's design and corrupt it's performance. Posted on: 2010/11/16 11:39

Koreans and Chinese are not the same. My experience is that there are crooks and honest people in all countries, including this one. I wish I had a Packard with a foreign Fernandez et Darrin body!
