BRAVO!!!!! EVERY RE-BUILDER SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO THE COMPLETE POST BY LES SMITH IN THE AMD OF 96.01.15, I can still remember the first time a Standard Action Stack was tight enough to pass the above test. After that day, nothing would leave my shop unless it could also pass the test, except for the exceptions mentioned by Les. I think that it would be nice if a "committee" of established re-builders could publish a paper on the "Standards for Restorations", so the younger generation would have a better guideline and goals to strive to obtain.
Just my two cents worth.
