Alamo Rotary closing...

I read over on the RX8Club.com that Tito is closing Alamo Rotary (San Antonio, TX)...

The user said that he called over there for something and they said they were closing soon. Because renting out the space was more profitable than running the shop.

Another rotary shop bites the dust.

Rick Sheveland (Houston club previous president) was the one who started that shop many years ago when he lived there.

Yup, how's Rick doing? I haven't heard from him since the move.

I'm still here, Rotary Performance in Garland TX is still around. No more Don Marvel (Marvelspeed) unfortunately.

Yeah, whatever happened to Rick Sheveland? I remember meeting that guy at Precision Imports (Mark and Matt Schroeder) about 10-11 years ago.

Tito was a good guy. I took him my '79 RX- and he put ina
13-B, headers, and a Holley 4-barrel. It screamed! Think of him every time I go nostalgia on the cars I've owned.
