Doing fine, Turk. Heading to Provo for the 5th.

When I faded away, there sure was a lot of Shelby controversy. Now, it's completely THE SAME!

By the way, I came across this security system being sold by one of your competitors. You need to get it for your Chevy dealership. I hear the margins are great:

Turk,
If you ever need a lead on insuring these beauties, you know I'm in the biz. But the company won't accept any drivers who refuse to do burnouts on the street, or refuse to drag race any ricer, Corvette or Viper, so the policy is kinda restrictive.

Maybe we can work on some kind of safety standard for them to help matters. All bolts must be at least finger tight, a hot glue gun minimum standard for welding.

Steve,
Seriously interested in -NO FAULT- insurance..

Seems with all the finger pointing and all the irresponsible drivers out there, first thing out of their mouths is to point to something broken on the car and yell "It's YOUR fault"!

I would love to be able to show them a copy of our policy and tell them it is "NO FAULT" of ours..

If you can fix us up with a policy like that, we would be interested. We have been self insured up to this point but don't feel like taking any more chances.

Customers nowadays are not what they used to be. They all have lawyers. We have to stay on top of things like that. Getting harder a harder to intimidate them into dropping the charges.

Jerks!

You can contact our offices when we open up next week.

Thanks

TURK

Mister Turk,

Last year I sent you $50000.00 for downpayment of my dream serpent. After you did not return my calls for 4 months I sent another $50000.00. Again, after the obligatory 4 months with no answered calls I sent another $50000.00. At this point I am somewhat vexed! Do not force me to send another $50000.00 buster!

P.S.- How is work progressing on my car?

Toby

Dear Tabby, (Is that short for Tabatha)?

We have been busy.
Haven't you ever beenb busy?

When you are busy, you don't have time to call the customers who have already sent in their deposits... You barely have enough to call the customers who have NOT..
Business 102..
I forgot what the message in 101 was. It'll come to me.

Dear HotShot Joe,
Our cars are not numbered like others. They are UNLISTED.. Unique in the industry.

Unlisted cars should be easier to register and insure. And talking of ridiculous lawsuites. Did you see the one they had on the news two days ago? Some idiot is suing one of the TV networks because he watched a show that made him sick. To dumb to switch channels I guess.

Road Sepents will NOT tolerate any political, sexual or religious discussions within their forum.

Take that stuff to the bars where they belong..

Talking about Lawsuits...How about the guy suing to stop the Innaguration from any mention of The Bible or Christianity!!!
Same guy. One of our own, from Sacramento!!

ummmmm - would RHD models be acceptable? I know of several RHD "cobras" that really ought to be taken off the road here. It would be a kindness to their owners.

Oh- btw - I think these cars have something called "shefroolay" engines in them. Never heard of them before myself.

Turk are you planning a "Summitt" to demonstrate the finer points used in dismantling a worthless Cobra? Will you have door prizes? How about food?

Wilf,
Are those things "metric"? If they are, we can't use them. Sorry. Las time we ordered some foreign stuff they all turned out to be metric and we had our work cut out for us..
Swore, we would never work with metric carpet AGAIN!!

Randy,
Yes. there will be a "Summitt". There always is!! We are doing the next one via Video Conferencing. Last In-Person-Summitt was not a good deal for us. Two of my employees got beat up and there were a bunch of stuff missing out of the shop.. Safety reasons....I'm sure you'll understand..

Dave,
No, they are.

I understand the reason for not serializing road serpents, however, could you sign the dashboard as this makes the car much more valuble.

Hey Turk,

I could use an independent rear suspension setup out of one of those SPF cars if you have one laying around.

I don't think they'll work.. SPFs must have a 9" inch rear with all that torque from the mighty Small blocks...
