Back to the original thread and Looking at your last comment about SV "calling you to get your car out" that shows that SV has business ethics.
I am sure we all have horror stories about companies going BK. My dyno tuner went BK last year and did not notify me and I lost a 408 short block, clutch, and a bunch of other parts ... not even a "sorry".
Then a local powder coater went BK with my custom fuel tank there! Couldn't wait for the proceedings (and they are 90 miles away) , so had another one made.
I've heard of body shops going BK and taking your tags off the car so they can get some $$$ for the liquidation! Good luck if your dry cleaners goes BK with all of your wife's clothes there ....
Business is business and anyone dripping in $100 at a time to have work done on their car ... well I would put your project on the back burner too - but that's business.
I now own Shell Valley #27 Daytona Coupe and I like the car. Made some changes and upgrades, spoke with Dana a few times and he has been a good source.
As for the new owners of Shell Valley, they have enough resource$ to to buy SV and must know what they are getting into. So Good Luck to the new owners of SV and I would buy from them.
