Well, I have about a dozen folks who might be interested in this total. I have emailed the jewler again this AM to see if he will come down in price. I'll keep folks posted here as well. if someone belongs to Corvette Forum, Corvette Action Center etc., and can post a topic about this to see if any additional folks who might be interested, I would appreciate. Those folks can email me directly at:

c3sharkattack@yahoo.com

Thank's for the update , Andy

As i mentioned befor the price qoute perperson will be a dertermining factor for me if i will be able to aford a set.

I am hopeing that the price qoute will be far lower than the first jewler who made the sharks.

looking forward to finding out the quote perperson.

Thank's
Eric

Evening all....I am including the email that I received from the jewler who did the SHARK emblems for us. Please see below:

OK, so now we know that this jewler can do the job for $3,045.00
We so far have 14 people interested with Eric as a MAYBE...

Also, I'm NOT making anything on this transaction..Kinda wanted to make that clear...OK?

So, what do we do? If we have 14/$3,045.00..that comes out to be $217.50. If Eric joins in, the price drops to $203.00

Thoughts???? This will be one project, that I don't mind doing and seeing through, but unlike the sharks, I would like to collect the MONEY upfront to ensure payment from everyone..

:)

Hi Jim!!!! Morning..The issue before with the Zinc on the SHARKS was the thickness of the body. If you take a look at the sharks, you'll notice the Chrome plating on the fins and places where the material is thinner chromed fine...It comes down to the cooling process.

I will MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE from the Jewler that this will NOT be an issue with the script. They do a mockup of the script, will cast it, plate it and send it to me for OUR approval. I'll take several digital pics, post them here and the membership can decide for themselves if this is good enough. I have been assured, though, that because the script is thin, it's a non issue.

Also, If the group here decides to go ahead with this project and we do get the scripts back and they are NOT what we want, I'll MAKE SURE the contract between the jewler and myself stipulates "ALL MONIES WILL BE RETURNED "

Hope this helps.

Andy
