Question Visit to Phoenix

I will be in Phoenix all of next week. I am saying out at Mesa and would like to know of a good parts supply company for engine parts.

Footnote. When this Forum was started, One of the partners lived in Phoenix I belive he was a retired Policeman. Or was he Robert Logans rep in the USA. Is he still around as I would like to catch up with him.

Yours Thankfully
Ron.

Re: Visit to Phoenix

Be careful in naming Rob Logan... (ref: old RF too sad thread..)

Can be Hersh Byrd?..we all miss him.

Re: Visit to Phoenix

Ron,

Hershal Byrd is the fellow you're looking for. I've never know Hersh to be anything but a warm, generous man who'd do anything to help a friend and I'm certain he'd point you in the right direction when you're in the Phoenix area. I've been in contact with him from time to time via Club Cobra, and perhaps that would work for you as well.

FYI, fellow forum contributor Chris Kouba also lives in that general area and good ol Hersh has been right there to give CK a hand when asked (Hersh lives maybe 20 minutes away). Suggest sending an email message to Chris and see if there isn't a way to hook you guys up.

Good luck!

T.

Re: Visit to Phoenix

Ron,

I've been offline and just checked in the paddock... I'm not too far away, near Chandler. I'm not sure I could help you out from a engine standpoint but two names which come to mind are Anthem Motors or Gordon Levy (who is on the forum and I believe does a bit of motor work).

No connection with either of them but I am a slightly satisfied customer of Anthem regarding my crate motor.

Or if you're looking to kill some time, feel free to drop me a line as well.

Please Ron!!! Do what is requested! I get sick when I hear that name and situation brought up and all the money that was lost due to a couple of unethical people.

Re: Visit to Phoenix

As a moderator, I don't see anything wrong with this thread. Ron is asking where Hershal is. Nothing wrong with that. Hersh was exonerated in any of the wrong doings of Robert Logan. However, if Ron Earp wishes to delete this thread, so be it.

Re: Visit to Phoenix

narrow minded would imply an intolerance of that individual, that does not seem to be Ron's message.

Re: Visit to Phoenix

"Narrow minded" ????.Sorry I don't get it. What or who is being narrow minded?

I do believe Hersh is one of nature's gentlemen.

Re: Visit to Phoenix

I think you might find that Ron received a couple of unsolicited PM's or emails from others with an axe to grind with RL to make the comment & ask for the thread to be deleted, doubt there was any malice intended by either Paulo or Ron, best we let this one go.
