1. I paid him for the case + full engine rebuild cost.
2. He said he already paid for other engine parts to several different suppliers.
3. I had to wait for the crank case. (same as all of you guys)
4. I told him to send me the engine parts first. Since I didn't see any progress on his case.
5. He didn't have the parts or money. He said he already ordered but COVID19 is the main problem for the delay. But I was getting all other parts for my other cars from EU and US without any problem.
6. I checked with his suppliers such as RASANT and etc. They never got any orders from Adam. Only requested for quotations long ago.
7. Claimed him for refund. He couldn't pay me back. Cuz he spent them all with his business. (his main business is... importing some packing materials from China)
------------------ all these happened within 1 year ---------------------------
8. He paid me like few hundred dollars in May 2021. (1st and the last payment he maid)
Now, I got the brand new crank case from Porsche. My full engine rebuild is almost finished.
Almost 2 years, whole project was wasted because of this guy.
I really wish someone can go see him. I would do it if I have few weeks to go to the state.
Anyway, please do not believe what he says.
Completely Joke.
good advise. i'm tired of all the run around and excuses! seems he's using the same BS on everyone else.... every time i speak/email him, I get the same **** ( your case will be done in a few weeks, its in testing, its going to be nicer and better then what you expect) i asked for a refund multiple times, he just says no!
sent Adam multiple emails this week.... Nothing! I have not been able to get a hold of him for over a couple months..... does anyone have a current address for him??
So, I'm on the cusp of buying a G-Series, 1987 911. And doing what most aspiring air-cooled owners do...reading every available thread, watching every video, looking at every picture....The whole issue about engine rebuilds led me down this particular rabbit-hole. Yes, I know...different application, but still, the whole notion seemed cool, so down the hole I went.
I've spent the past couple of hours pouring over this utterly fascinating post. All the updates, the back and forth technical talk that I barely understood, but still...I was completely IN IT. I am riveted and cannot wait to see how this concludes. Will the man with a vision and apparently the motivation, tenacity and means needed to take on such a venture prevail? Has some unforeseen event derailed the efforts? Will the early believers eventually be made whole? Or will this all end in tragedy and lawsuits?
This is killing me...this would be like discovering the series Breaking Bad, binge watching it all in a week only to discover there's a 5th season, but you can't watch it until next year...
or maybe not at all...it just unceremoniously ends.
I think he decided not to use his current email and skype id. (He never replied me back with his business email account. adam.supersixfour@gmail.com was the email he gave me)
Man, I'm really pulling for Adam to pull this off...for him to show up with some extraordinary set of circumstances that explain all this away and deliver on these cases. What an accomplishment that would be.
