We had an original 289 when I was growing up and this upright issue is nothing compared to the original AC fasteners constantly breaking off in the wrench, having to sleave the frame because the body kept breaking below the doors, etc.
It sounds like SAI have been pretty cool. SAI had a saying in the 60's, the warranty is 3ft or 3min which-ever comes first
I say fix it and talk to Amy and if she does not feel like its SAI's responsibilty then let it go and enjoy the car!
By the way, I am sure we could use another dog/cat vet on the south side of the bay.
Feel the burden of the price of this car??? Dude, if you only knew what I went through.......
Applied and worked for a day at a practice in Monterey only to be told at theend of the day " your a great vet, you did a great job, but we hired some one 3 days ago...)

Yeah, I tried that after the first round of screwed things were discovered on my car. How many rounds do I have to go through? The latest problem, they can not even blame on any one else since it is 100% SAI.

So, what you are saying is that I should be grateful since it is not more screwed up??? Just because my car is better than a 1960s car, I should be grateful that they are using modern fasteners and it doesn't matter that they did not torque them properly (even though they are inaccessable unless you take the front suspension apart) and that with less than 500 relatively gentle street miles they are backing out and could have killed me and others because things were worse in the 60s..? That I should be grateful that they are using modern technology. Is this the better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick philosophy or the "ido it because it feels so good when I stop phiosophy"?

Can you send me pictures of your suspension since you have an upgrade and do not have these problems? And if you do, and the parts are available, why , when I asked about such a thing, was I told that they did not exist?
