Wayne was very helpfull when I talked to him a couple of months ago ! What a shame!!! I wish I could return the favor!!!!

That sucks... was just over at a friend's house looking at some of his more extensive work... full frame all C5 '68 Camaro including the transaxle, getting a dry sumped 430" LS1 for road race duty, 305 & 335s, etc. Going to be sweet when finished.

Here's how it was at Wayne's shop, my friend has the powertrain and suspension in but is still doing wiring, plumbing, and finishing the bodywork.

Must be something pretty major if he's offering to sell the jigs. Unfortunate to hear to say the least.

Wow this was a suprise to me too, he's on a roll with the subs. Hope all is well and just a business move to cut back a bit.He's been getting hammered lately.

Good luck Wayne.

I really wish that this was not happening! Wayne has always been such a great guy. I have had many conversations about his and others venders quailty products, and sorry to here this uneasy news :( . I feel very fortuneate that I had ordered his C5 frame a while ago. Just hope that maybe I will be able to help this "Great Man" in our pro-touring world, as he helped so many of us.

It's suprising to me that he would just close shop, rather than try to sell the business. Seems to me a place like that, with its customer base, and employees would be worth something to sell as a complete business, with it's good name and reputation.

I am very sorry to hear about that. I will echo what others have stated in that I sincerely hope it's not a health issue but rather a business decision. Regardless I wish him the best.

Sad to her.He was real gentleman to carry on where Art left. First in camaro hitech sub business!

Sad news indeed!!

I thought things were clicking right along with the addition of the new SF that uses DSE's parts, that caught my eye!

DSE and the others build really nice frames...but this hobby owes Wayne for all he has done...thanks bud!! :thumbsup:

Like the others I hope to God it isn't a health issue, you can always make it threw the financial ones....

Its not a health issue. So thank God for that.

He has just run into unforeseen circumstances that are requiring him to stop production a bit.
He did say that the jigs might be for sale on the website, but he was testing the waters incase it does require him to shut down, but because of all the calls and e-mails in interest for them they aren't for sale right now

Is there anyone out there that is running his subframe that can supply me with the locations for the upper and lower arms? UCA front and rear pivot and LCA front and rear pivot points? I'd like to compare the Geometry with some other designs
