I lost a part at the Infinion raceway last year and I met the owner of devek and his son. They helped me out, and I got the part so that I could make it home to Santa Cruz from the track.

No more anecdotes, please. We don't want big brother to start counting donor cars here.

Call Jim or Jeannie, or if you're afraid of phone conversations (or you're like me and always seem to shop 15 minutes after they close) just enter the part number into 928gt.com. They have every part, even some really off the wall stuff... anybody need pistons from a rare 1986 32V Euro? They're listed.

parts each time??

Marc:

Interesting that you decided to play big time hardball. Too bad you have no idea who you are playing with, or how good at it I happen to be.

It wasn't good enough that you decided to call me an a$$....now you feel the need to make a few unsubstanciated cracks about engines. Perhaps I might let you get one crack in for free. Two is never going to happen....you have to pay for the second one....and I can make it as expensive as my little heart desires.

I've got a feeling that playing with you is going to be like drop kicking a wounded humming bird....way too easy to be much fun. You have way too many people interested in your assets to try and play with me....think carefully about it before you continue playing.

Hope YOU are having a nice day and it continues.

Try that again with "dots" between the part numbers, ie. xxx.xxx.xxx.xx, and also without dots or spaces, ie, xxxxxxxxxxx

Marc:

Just a sample for you....

State law allows you to dismantle up to three PERSONAL cars per year. I'm sure that you transfered the titles into your name before you dismantled them, right? Amazingly enough, if they aren't personal cars, seems that you need a dismantler's license....or face some big penalties. I'll have the appropriate state agency come by and you can show THEM how smart you are.

Now who were you saying didn't research the laws?

Here's a clue for you....you need to know who you are playing with before you start the game. The first inning is over....you want to play all nine????

Still having a good day?

Crap --OK, it's there without the spaces --thought I tried that.

You know, if you need some help with your site/store, I do this for a living and will gladly consult/code/design in exchange for parts. PM me --my credentials in ecommerce development/management are as high as they get.

Sometimes, what feels so right; looks so bad.
