he's talking about a member here, "Dr914 " ...
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act=...ODE=03&MID=4947 from his profile: ======================================== My name is Nicholas, and I collect, rebuild, restore, salvage, and customize vintage Porsche. My daily driver is a bright Orange 1966 912 with the Porsche built Super 90 "Giant-Killer". Over the past five years I have logged over 1000 hours building and customizing my 1971 914. The crazy part about the whole thing is that when I first bought the car I drove it for 212 miles over the period of five days. It smoked, choked, and caught fire several times and I have now logged three times that many miles trailering the car from shop to shop as I work from several different places. But I love the rotton thing and someday I might just drive it again. ======================================== located in "Hanford, Ca" ...

Yes, DR914 is the person, nic wood. I sent the money to his address, and he received the check on Nov 8th and said the package would go out the same day. Since we're both in Calif, I waited for about a week or so to receive the package, before I called him. I've called him probably 8 times and emailed him to no avail. He called the shop once and left no message, just his number to call, but he never answers the phone. So I thought someone in the club might know him, and could help me reach him!
Thanks, Rich |

Still no reply from Nicolas Woods. It's been 3 weeks since he emailed me and said he was shipping the parts that day!! He hasn't returned my emails or phone calls.Of course he has cashed my check! I guess I had better put out a warning to everyone on the club site, that this guy seems to be dishonest. I still hope I'm wrong, and he'll get back to me soon with a good excuse.
What does the club do when someone seems to have an honesty problem? |

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif) .................seriously Rich, there have been a couple other situations like this and the guy eventually came through...personal problems, divorce, misplaced medication, etc. Maybe someone here lives near him and can check him out? |

I live about 20 minutes from Dr. 914. He lives in Hanford, I live in Visalia. I have exchanged several emails with him previously and he seems like a pretty nice guy. He told me he was disloving his restoration bus. He invited me to come out and pick up what I needed. There must be something else going on, my impression of his was not "a flake." If you don't get any feedback from him, I could look up his phone number and I belive I have his address as well.
