Unless the troubles with the product were my own doing, if I was having as much trouble as you I would be talking to my attorney and the State's Attorney General where Oze is located.

I know the molds for the coupe are different than my slantback but the original Oze in Canada produced a coupe just as good out of the molds as mine was with little or no bodywork and no thin fiberglass. I bought my car from the Oze dealer that was in northern Alabama and drove up to his shop before I purchased my car and closely inspected the coupe he had assembled and on display which was in fiberglass only, no bondo or paint etc. on it and it was perfect from the Oze factory in Canada. I ordered my car when I saw the quality of the product. Ordered in June and drove back up to get it the first of September. I thought the Corey and other guys in the Atlanta area who build junk 32 and 34 Fords were bad (and they really are total junk with weeks of work and gallons of bondo to make them presentable) but they build a masterpiece compared to what you got from the new Oze company.

In a perfect world, that would be the answer!!! However in our real world suing and winning a company for poor quality is seldom a winnable case unless there is proof of false advertising.... The company's attorney shoots it down with the fact that quality is subjective, not objective, and as Daytonagary implied in his post, "let the buyer beware". Buying anything without knowing the past history of the product from it's current manufacturer, or not personally looking it over and assuring it meets your own standards of quality is still the best way to make purchases and prevent situations like this...Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

here is photo of Oze I built. only bondo used was on each side of the cowl to match the curvature of the hood that was off from the factory. All other white you see is just thin (1/16 to 1/32 thick) spot putty to make it perfect for show car straightness. front of rear fenders, matching doors flush with rear quarters and finish the sanding area on all parting lines left by the mold. Canada did a much better job. Inside I had to do some work on the front of doors so it matched the dash perfectly. A golf ball size of bondo and little more of that in spot putty and it was ready to prime, wet sand and paint.
