In 79 ordered a new Olds. I was supposed to get in about 6 weeks but got called that the strike would delay my car. I think that it was about 2-3 weeks later I was told that I could pick up my new car. I got there and the car was under a covered portico, went in and signed the final papers and drove it off to Ziebard. Walking to the office I looked back at the ca in the sunlight I noticed a "wave" on the side of the car. The car was a metallic bronze and there was a light colored wave all along the side car---both sides. On closer inspection I noticed all kinds of over spray on the passenger side door jambs. I figured out that the car was sitting on the line,almost finished and the strike began. Must be as the workers walked off the line they took their lunch boxes or whatever and scratched it all along both sides of the car. After the strike they must have noticed it and sidetracked the car for a hurried repair. After a big "go around" I finally ordered a different car in Yellow.
