SC crew, need a favor

Ive been trying to contact Reese (20B10ae) for a few weeks now without success. He hasnt been the forum since mid may, is never on AIM, and hasnt responded to phone calls. I know some of you guys see him around, so please ask him to give me a call or something in re: to his engine parts. I need him to either take them home or send me the parts to complete the build.

He has been breaking himself doing PK. As for the 2 7s he has until he can find a suitable job and get away from the EVIL mcdaniels enterprise he has no money to further the projects. But he is trying.

Im not pressuring him to get anything done on this engine, give me money, parts, etc. I just need the stuff moved out of here if he isn't going to have me build it right now. That's all.

Still no word from Reese or any of his friends. I'll give it another month and then I will have to do something with these parts sitting around my shop.

Called reese again a couple days ago and left another message. I sorta doubt he is even getting them, though. Can anybody find out wtf is going on? It's not like he owes me money or anything, why won't he contact me? Somebody go bang on his door or something.

So a couple weeks ago while I was out of town, I got a call FROM REESE...I didnt have cell service on the road, and he left a message. It was hard to make out but I swear I thought I heard him say something about being in a coma or some such. Anyway I tried to call him back a few days later and got the same thing, just a voicemail. Left him another message, havent heard back.

What the fork is going on?

Later.

I'm told that the 20b parts are being sold to another forum member, so at least Reese appears to be communicating with someone.

Well, still no word from anyone. I still have this damn engine sitting in the corner that I'm responsible for.

If the **** shows up on ebay, don't ask any questions, just put in your bid.

Well, like I said, if you see a 3 rotor block for sale, don't ask any questions.

If he doesnt have the consideration to let me know what the hell is going on and move his **** out of my garage, then I dont have the consideration to continue to store it for free.

John,

If you plan to buy this engine from him, then why dont you paypal me enough to ship the parts to you. Then the rest can be between you and him, and it rids me of the issue altogether.

Otherwise I am about ready to put it up for sale. I guess Christmas might come early for me this year.

I kept the rotors for myself and sold the rest of the motor today for 300 bucks. Thanks, Reese, I'll probably be able to buy some nice parts with the money!
