    I'm so pissed! the whole side of the Z has been keyed

    Man that sucks. Many years ago, I did a car show for the local high-end mall. Some woman let her kid loose and the little brat climbed on the hood of a Porsche Speedster replica that we had just painted before I could catch him. She then had the gall to say that it was my fault for not having the car roped off better. The car had a stainless steel rail around it! Long story short, her husband had better sense and took care of my cost for me to repaint the hood. Sometimes it is the parents fault for not raising respecting children. Sometimes it is just stupid kids! Glad I don't have any.

    Car shop in the southeast?

    Ok, well I have been making contacts with people, deciding what I want to do, blah blah blah.

     

     

    I have been in contact with Rebello, and I have decided to take my L24 and get it stroked to a 2.7/2.8L. Just need to find out if they will do the diesel crank or not, but I am sure that they will.

     

     

    Anyways, I am currently located in the southeast and just want to know if there are any good shops here that I could send my engine to. If I have to send it to Rebello, I will do it, just that if I can find a shop here that is extremely good and what they do, I had rather do that since I could drive the engine there, and pick it up when they are done instead of getting it shipped.

     

     

    So, does anyone know of any good shops that I should know about that could get this job done for me? I am located in Chattanooga, and would have thought that there would be tons of stuff down in Atlanta, but I am having a really hard time trying to find the information that I already have.

    Beware Of Jim Edwards

    in Parts Wanted

    My advice is to keep the mature upper hand and make sure he gets his parts back. Don’t damage the parts, no retaliation, just ship them back with delivery confirmation. Either he will “get it†and personally take ownership of his poor choices or he will be shunned by enough of the Z community to take his shady practices elsewhere.

     

    That’s my $.02

     

     

    JIM EDWARDS SHOULD BE SHUNNED BY 510, Z and anyone else burned by this goober over the years that he has been doing this. He should not take his shady practices anywhere, he should just stop! If he did this with Harley WTB forums you can imagine the outcome if anyone tracked him down. Now, if you ride a Harley, you ain't a bad guy. I'm just saying most Harley owners don't play games.

     

    If Jim contacts me and agrees to pay shipping, I will return it. He had been notified way in advance of March 31... Multiple times! He had time to realize that the deal was disputed. I have sent him emails requesting contact.

     

    If he gets his parts back, I'll need to hunt the parts again. ZBarn will get my business!

    Update:

    Jim sent my parts on March 31, they arrive April 2.

     

    I filed a dispute with paypal March 12 after several attempts to discuss this with Jim. He did not reply at all. Paypal and I send him an e-mail notifying him of the dispute. Any sane person would have said "OK, I f*c*ed up." After 30 days Paypal awarded me a win on March 26 my credit card credits me and charge backs his account. I'm cool, Then this fool sends the parts on March 31!

     

    I seriously don't understand the guy.

     

    Now, show of hands please. Do I keep the parts and let him take a loss or do I return the parts at a cost of $13.00 to me? BTW, he said shipping was $20.00 I guess he made $7.00 right there.

     

    Confused,

    We would need more information from the complainants. Who they are. Where they live. Have they filed a report? If we can get enough information, we will be glad to look into it.

    If you've been a victim of this scumbag, why not let us know? PM ME and tell me about it. I love to go to NC to spend the weekend mountain biking or road riding my bicycle. A side trip to visit our friend Jim... anyone interested. Jim told me he goes mountain biking, it even says so on his myspace page. I know of a mean cliff that if timed properly would look like an accident... guys that fat don't have very good cycling skills... who knows... I know where he lives. Google maps even showed me his run-down shack.

     

    Jim, how about it bud? A little mountain bike trip to Tsali? Come on out! Let's see how fat, er... fast you are.

    Paypal awarded me a win and credit card issued a credit on my account today! Score one for the good guys. But Jim, if you see this, It ain't over until EVERYONE you've stolen from gets repaid. Watch your back! :nono:

    Guy's

     

    Generating awareness is one thing. Taking swings at a pinata is another. Lets keep this dispassionate.

     

    Agreed, Ron. I won't say anything about his mother either. She probably has enough problems. This guy will get what's coming to him in due time. :nono:

     

    This is a great community!... most of the time.

    anyone live near burnsville, nc? need a possible favor

    It took me like...8 MONTHS to get back my money from some idiot, but it was a paypal transaction and not through ebay.

    the guy said that he put the wrong zip, then he said he sent it, I asked for a tracking number but he said he "lost" the number. Then I called my dads place since I moved and he said no package had EVER been shipped to his house.

    go figure hah.

     

    Who beat you out of your $? Jim Edwards or this jacket-off?

     

    If you got burned by Edwards, people will be happy to help as he has burned a lot of Zcar.com guys. Even dimequarterly has a page devoted to this ***-****!

    If I were J.E. I would stay inside with my doors locked! :icon13:

     

    Burnsville is a nice place to ride a road bike though!

    Mustache Bar Bushings/Burning

    in Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis

    Posted

    Also do I need to remove the mustache bar and if I do, will the rear end drop. Any advice?

     

    Look at it this way. The mustache bar is located just inches from the FUEL TANK! If you start a fire back there, well ya better have paid your medical insurance and have a paramedic standing close by.

     

    It ain't no big thing to drop it and do it right. Purchase a Haynes manual, you are gonna need one anyway.
