You don't think he would have... (ummm... what's the word... oh yeah..) "embelished" his CV by chance, would he? Nawwwww! Nevermind.

"Marc began his career at Ford, managing the manufacture of 700,000 Escort Instrument Panels. His efforts resulted in the lowest scrap rate in plant history."


Is that becasue every single one, regardless of quailty, was installed into the cars?

I always imagined him to look different to that - funny how that always happens.
From my experiance and from what I read I thought he would have a patch over one eye, a hook on the right arm and a parrot on his shoulder 8>)

I don't see what the big issue is.

When I got my DEVEK B1 cams, I received them three days after I ordered them, had two weeks to inspect them, and only when I was fully satisfied that they were as represented, was my account charged for them.

Oh, did I mention I got them from 928 International?

I've been running two businesses in parallel for the past two years, and don't list Hooked On Cars on my resume, if it's not relevant to the job I'm applying for. Everybody would do it that way.

You list what's relevant and don't confuse people with stuff that isn't for the particular position in question.

it frustrated the hell out of me some years ago trying to order performance parts from devek. i tried several times and couldnt even place an order, the reason it was so annoying was because they were one of the few vendors with particular performance parts listed for the 928. in fact im not sure anyone else today even lists cams for the 928 or double ajustable shocks.

Brian... for the Brits and the other Europeans, hell even the Canadians, that's about 1/2 price with the recent slide in the dollar.

Exchange rate exacerbates the losses. How much did they offer you to take it?
