due to some really strange things happening in the last few days I am NOT SELLING ANY PARTS AS OF NOW

before I go further I have already contacted my attorney and some things are in the works

today I found my shop locked with all new locks and no way for me to get in...
after a long conversation with my "supposed partner" the situation is even worse
I got most of my tools and will get the rest tomorrow along with my '77
but it looks like I won't have access to anything else for a while

Sorry folks

I was already looking for a new place to set up but that is now on the back burner as my source of income is no longer available (if you know someone looking for a shop gopher or entry level wrench.. or a computer geek let me know)
I really can't go into all the details, but I can say this truly sucks...
but the Phoenix did rise from the ashes and so shall I
NONE OF MY DEVELOPMENT WORK WILL BE AFFECTED BY THIS

peace...

Rixter,
Tough luck - you will survive though.
Keep us informed.

Hang in there Rixter. Your work and love of these cars has benefitted many of us, and we will always be supportive.
I hope you get back on track, solo I'm sure.

Rixter... Sorry for your situation.

One day at a time... It sounds trite,
I know, but one door slams and another
opens.

Best of G'luck.

Sorry to hear that bit of bad news, but hang in there. I know, it sounds trite but Im sure you will come out fine. You have lots of friends pulling for you bud.
Best wishes,

Dude, that sucks. After all the help you have offered everyone here on Rennlist only good karma will come your way. Everything happens for reason. Keep a clear head then after this blows over sacrifice some brain cells at the local pub. Come on North Carolina, lets find this guy some work.

Good luck getting your stuff back. Hopefully you can still get your own shop going sometime soon.

Rixter,

As Sierra said, Everything always happens for a reason. You may not think so now, but trust me you'll look back and say, good thing that happened because I wouldn't be where I am today. Mark this thread and look back on it a year from today!

Good luck partner!
