They are with the Yeti, Bigfoot and Loch Ness Monster.
Everyone's heard of them, but no ones *actually* seen 'em.

Well I have...the hubs that is unsure.gif

Aliens have them. alien.gif

Nah, it's not a big deal. Just sounds like a cool product. I will track down another 911 front end then. wink.gif It will be nice to see them installed on a 914 someday.

i have 1 hub installed on the drivers side of my car smile.gif

doing some last minute work on them, I screwed up and ended up getting the wrong studs, they are 73mm long from the hub to the tip of the stud, but they are only threaded about 1" from the tip, so you'd have to run like 50mm (2 inch) spacers.....

got to order the correct one, just have not had time or the money since they are about $7 a pop

still no word from Braholio, guess he's gone on another vacation or working feverishly on a 914 to get it ready for the WCC welder.gif

how does it go:

as long as he surfaces before I get my motor parts from Jake, I'll be content.....I guess I could use my 1.8 block instead of the GA 2.0 case he has of mine.....
Joe Bob

Okay... so we've heard about this e-commerce thing for what?... six or nine months now. Maybe a year?

Face it guys, it's not gonna happen any time soon.

It looks like you have a LOT of customers willing to buy, NOW!

I don't really know what the hold up is? It's easy to set up a quick ordering site using Paypal.

I'm sure the people involved (ahem.. Brad!) could use the money right about now. I feel bad for him. He never seems to get a break.

Anyways... I understand that the club is waiting to get a TaxID number or something. That can be had in less than an hour.... seriously.

Qarl
Okay... I checked. It's been over FIFTEEN months.

Well, I probably would have nabbed at least 2 sets of the hubs by now and this would have been my third set provided the price was right etc. So I would think that Qarl is right, there are buyers out there for sure. Maybe it's just something that isn't going to happen? Too bad, looked like a great product. confused24.gif
Bleyseng
It will happen just someone is way busy now.....actually has been since Jan 1.
Qarl
The purpose of my post wasn't to be rude, or disrespectful.

I'm pretty sure that there are quite a few dollars tied up in the billet hubs. I know there is a demand for them. It seems a natural match for someone to take up the offer and match buyers with the sellers. I don't think e-commerce has to be up to make this happen.

I also figure that you gathered an extensive list of people that wanted the hubs, but quite a few will drop off, or have already secured other means, because of the delay in being ready to take orders.

I think the product is neat and the idea of 914club e-commerce is neat... I only hope it can come together soon.

I know you guys are all over-worked and under-appreciated.

I also know that the hubs will not package themselves, nor bring themselves to UPS for shipping, etc. So there is a lot more work beyond just taking money and orders.

Aahh.. never mind... just ignore me...

So here is a picture of a dancing banana...
