Oh man, that's brutal. I figured the cars were dollar cars or else provided by a sponsoring company (Hot Wheels or the like) but never that they were actual customer cars.
The first mistake was trusting HCM. I have heard nothing but bad things about the shop, the owner(s) and the club that he heads up, Stangpede. I don't speak from any personal experience with them, so take what I say with a grain of salt, but I have seen the work they do in person and it's pretty terrible. Last year they took one of their Chameleon cars to SEMA that had fisheyes, chips, and cracks in the paint, and a burnt up side skirt from sagging side exhaust.
I didn't venture all the way out to the Silver Lot to see the HCM Camaro in person this year, but when I initially saw those pictures of it on another board it really bummed me out. What a tragedy. Parts missing, parts fitting terribly, and just a general lack of quality.
Shevyman, I'm really sorry about how your car turned out. There's still hope for it, so after you sue Ernie, PM me and I might be able to help put you in touch with a shop that can fix all of his mistakes and help it be the car that it should have been.
