the car is being build now at another shop. crispeed droped the ball at the moment of true after 2 1/2 yrs. It is a shame that after all this time and after all the money that I spent with chris, this end up the way it did...(very ugly, .......nasty ugly). I thougth he was a different kind of person.......(knew him for 6yrs) but I was big time wrong. I wont say all the **** that went down, but I just can say that you guys will never believe it.
but well, the car should be done by the first week of september. pics will come soon.
asier.

^+1. Crispeed, although I have never met him seemed like a stand up guy. But you never know. There's always two sides to a story.

Maybe those piston guys were paying more money eh?

Sorry to hear, I know how it feels to have something at a shop and having problems with the owners/work.

money is never been an issue with me. always available (and this project was not in the cheep side)...... It just seems to be lack of everything else on his part.
this project was suppose to be done long time ago, but somehow after all this time and MONEY spend pretty much nothing have been done and no interest is being showned to go foward. AMONG OTHER VERY BAD THINGS THAT I"LL NOT DISCUSS HERE, BUT people who know chris will know what I am talking about.
There are alot of parts that I've been trying to get back from him since the beginning of the year without any luck so far. I guess the outcome of that will make me think again and release all the bad press that it was suppose to be release long time ago. time will tell if you guys will know all the true, so whenever making a decision on whom to choose to get your car done, a proper decision will be made.

+1 sorry to hear about the problems. There are always 2 sides to every story. Crispeed is a very stand up guy. No idea what happened so I really can't comment. Please post lots of pics and videos when this thing does run though.

guys can we stick to the car and leave the gossip out of it? I agree that there are 2 sides to every story, but this is not the place to discuss either of them. please keep it on the topic of the car

Thanks

where are the photos?

how much longer to completion? September has 9 days to go. don't get me wrong though, i know a project of this magnitude is destined to have delays, but just curious how close.
