Eric Hollander
I live between Boulevard Motors, and Wild Bills shop. For the past 2 years, both have closed their shops.
8 years ago when I bought my first Corvette (64 Vert. 365HP) I brought it to Wild Bill for a inspection. He told me the car will never be worth anything, and I should sell it. He also gave me wrong information on what the car should have been built with. Said the car was all wrong, made me feel like crap. Then he charged me $100! He has since moved to Florida. 1 year later, this car won 1st place in a Judged show.
As for Eric, he is a piece of s#&t!! The one time I stopped at his shop, there were about 4 high school kids working there. As I was looking at the cars, I asked a few of the kids what they were doing (they all had a spray bomb in each hand) they said they are "restoring the corvettes"!! I asked if any of the parts were to be removed before painting to avoid overspray? The kid said "no, the way Eric takes pictures of the cars, you wont see it."
I was told from a 67 corvette owner that Eric swap"t out parts off the car before it was delivered. The owner had pictures to prove it.
All I can say is, I'm glad the both of them are gone.

I'm thinking of buying a 1970 LS5 Convertible from him. Described as an 11,000 original miles unrestored car. If you can go by and see if the red convertible with black ragtop is there and check it out, I would be forever grateful.
Thanks,
Brian
