.......... I have had it ............ I am pulling the Thames out of the shop in Asheboro ............ it has been there for 3 years and 10 months ........... and this is where we are ............ the work has been excellent, but after four years this car should be finished ......... The car has again ( for the fourth time ) sat untouched for over two months ........... a very common occurence ............. I have talked with the owner multiple times about "getting on with it" ............ his answer this last time was "Things have been crazy around here, give me a few weeks to get things in order" ........... well, the answer to that is NO !! I asked over a year ago for them to get a driveshaft fabricated ........ nothing ........... Need dimensions so I can get a new radiator fabricated ........ nothing .......... I went ahead and built the engine internals and it has been sitting since September waiting on paint ............. the rear doors still need to be media blasted ......... the shop has been waiting for their "Blaster" to return a call from over a month ago ........... Enough is enough I will be informing them tomorrow morning to cease all work (ha ha, what a joke) and prepare the car for a total parts inventory and movement to another location I hate to do this, but I would like to see this project finished before I die of old age ............. Enough is Enough !!!

Sorry to hear about your troubles with the Thames. I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to have something that cool and you can't get anything done on it. I wish you the best of luck for future progress. Keep us posted.

Sorry to hear that about Timmy. Hope you get better results at the next shop. I want Timmy roadworthy so I can come down and go for a ride.
