I put a deposit on a kit with Andy about 2 years ago. Well, after a divorce from "Hell". Missing about $350,000.00 from my business and just about going broke, I was finally able to pick up most of the business that had been devasted by my ex----. But, another time, another space and another Jerry Springer show LOL. It was that bad!!!!!! Maybe this happened to Roaring 40's, never know. I sure as hell didn't, just never trust another with your books, if at all possible.

But, anyway, I emailed Andy and asked if he remembered me and if I could possibly still get my car. And this is after 2 years or so!! He got back in touch with me that day and this was on a weekend and he was and is more than willing to keep the deposit as it was and allow me to pick up with my kit as I had left off. Now how is this for honesty and a great business man? He could have easily just brushed me off, but he didn't. He remembered me, took the time to look up my order and was 100% up-front and honest with me. I can still do the kit and I have lost a little due to increases in materials and such, but.....

I have been in business for 20 years and I'll tell you, we just generally do not have this type of customer service now a days. This is one hell of a guy and my hats off to him and his company!!! I wonder why he is still around after what, 20 years in the kit car business.

Go Tornado, you have my utmost respect and support. Wish I had the $$$ to open a branch in the USA. Maybe if I could get all that $$$ that has disappeared over the last 5 years.
