I'm alive and well. I can be found in "Off Topic", when I am on the Forum at all (not much).

No real progress on Grond, unfortunately.

As Outklast and JeepTJ mentioned, I've been super busy with everyone's car but my own. I would love to finish Grond for Cruise In this year, but who knows?

EnglandGreen Inc. : Year One has been quite traumatic. I'll be making a VERY long thread soon (with pictures and videos) of what my first year in business has been like. Some of it has been pretty ugly but most of it has been awesome.

Thank you all for the wonderful support.

Stephen

^^^^^Stephen, as a business owner I know your pain on getting through the first year or two. After 10+ years as a self-employeed person there is no going back to work for anyone other than the customer. I wish only the best in the future of your business

Catching too much flak from the Keyboard Commandos, Armchair Experts and Wannabe Tuners, David.

Additionally, "the faithful" that I have done excellent work for (like yourself) almost never extol my virtues but rather make up a silent majority that seldom voice their opinions.

Like I said, I can usually be found in OT. The other sections are too hostile - and lately, too childish, for my tastes.

Hi Stephen,

I hope the Clutch change on my ZO6 in your shop will be classified in the "awesome" column.

On my side I will say it is the best experience I ever had with a repair shop in USA, very close of the best German standards...and on the Man the words, professional, passionate, meticulous, honest, helpful, accurate and on schedule are not to much...

In front of the shop car cleaned by Stephen and ready to go:



My personal endorsement:



Christian

You don't have to say anything my friend. Just keep up with what you are doing and the way you are doing it and hopefully the rest will take care of itself.
