Rambler you are one cool guy! Your offer to pitch in and help, along with those from other members is heart warming and I know it has helped Anthony and Jen a great deal.

I've talked to Anthony a lot the last few days. The car is going to be moved to a shop in So-Cal where things will be fixed and done right. This isn't 100% free and will cost Anthony around 4k. An awesome price, but it totally kills the already strained funds needed to finish the car. We all know how little things like AN fittings and fuel line can add up quick. Many of you have already donated parts he needs or offered to help in other ways. However, Anthony has his pride and feels funny about asking for what he needs. He doesn't want to be a charity, but could use our help. So if you want to lend a hand perhaps it would be best to contact our buddy Steve Rupp with your offer. You know he will put whatever we give to good use. I know that any way we can help off set the cost of fixing what should have been done right the first time it was paid for will come back to us. Not saying we should finish the car for him, but rather help our good friend get back on track so he can finish it.

I can chip in a few bucks.. maybe set up a pay-pal deal for those that want to kick in a bit.

Any one of us could end up in this crappy situation.

Man, If we could have a stand up presidential candidate like Mario, Frank , or some of u others wouldn't every body want to vote!!!!!! :hail:

Hey Tony and Ned, i know this won't heal the wounds, but because i found this forum and all u guys , there was a light at the end of my tunnel nightmare this week!! i joined couple months ago because of my problems with synister!! in the middle of that thread--here comes C. Fesler out of no where and offers up a great deal on a billet specialties front drive setup(should be here monday) Real great people to deal with!! would never have known about it without the turmoil i had w/synister!! There is some justice to those of us who take people for their word!! I still catch myself looking over my shoulder with other vendors since i got burned -but in time that will heal too!! There are some great guys w/ great shops on this forum that make us all proud and let us forget the ones that aren't!! After all , we may be located all over the country but family sticks together!!!

Steve I think that's a great idea! Let me know when it's set up and I'll add to the pot.

:thumbsup:

I'll kick in some if it helps.

My dad has a situation like this brewing on a 55 he has being built in Missouri. The guy quoted too low a price and now updates are few and excuses and unreturned calls are many. We'll see what happens. Right now there is $50k out half a country away from where dad lives.

I'm not sure what I'll do if it goes bad.

Yes, please post the paypal account here when you get it setup, Steve.

Hey Chris Deshane, maybe you should pitch in a few bucks too eh?

I hated reading that bit from Anthony's wife about giving Chris baby toys and supplies. That is freaking unbelievable. Chris are about the lowest of the low. Anthony wasn't a customer of yours - he was likely YOUR best friend. Sad.

I'm PAYPAL illiterate.. maybe Scott the computer nerd could do it. lol

LOL! I can gladly do it if you'd like. Use paypal all the time. Steve I will PM you about details...

turn around

no problem,glad i can help. if he has a shop lined up great.
.a new thread needs to be started and as steven rupp suggested use a pay-pal account for that shop .so we can donate what we can .one thing thats gonna come up is "trust". it should be posted to that thread how much does come in torward this shop bill just to keep us members informed of what comes in ...
i know i wouldnt ask for help either but if we can make this the new focus and for tony and his wife it will show finishing the car and being in the car hobby is truly worth it .
one reason i love being in the car hobby is all the great people i have come to know.

Hi Tony

I have never met you, but you are a friend of one of Customers (David) that we are doing a 69 Camaro for. He sent me this link today & I just finished reading it.
I don't want to get in the way of any deal you have going for or with a shop. But I am close to you & would be willing to come out for free & take a look at your car & see if I can be of any help.
I feel really bad for what has hapened to you on your project.
I love to hear about all the support & all the help the members of this site have offered. It is great to see.

I hope I can be of help. Look forward to meeting you some time.
