who knows but i highly doubt it... this is probably just one of the stories that managed to not be keep quiet....I am sure specially now that its public, some more attention will be put to try to solve the problem. I hope for a positive outcome on the horizon for the parties involve...the story sucks though...i feel bad for the OP considering this started since 06.

edit.
Glad all got taken care of

Sorry about that, the only changed that were made during this process was the stroker kit being switched to a GTM not the Brian Crower, every thing else was purchased by us and shipped directly to GTM in August 2006. Was worded wrong in the post.

OK Keep the thread on topic.

This thread does not need peanut gallery comments. I am sure sam will reply as he always does.

Do not OT this thread with since OT banter. Consider this a warning to all

Very well put, I was going to post to the same affect of OT comments and E-Thuggery as well as unnecessary fueling of the fire. There seems to be waaay too much of that on here lately.

The OP seems to be ok with the new arrangement.

yeah, it's only been an hour since the first post. sam or george will reply.

also, i didn't even bother reading the first post because frankly, look at it. you gotta break it up into paragraphs bro!

i hope things get cleared up. btw, taking it to the forum is the last resort. i hope you and gtm discussed it via PMs and phone calls.

If you would have read the original post, you would have seen that he had contacted them about his money many times..

There as been far worse in this F/I forum then any of the thoughts or opinions in this thread. I guess throwing the reminder out there isn't a bad idea, but I think people can comment as they please as long as not to start a argument.

But still would like to hear the other side of the story as always. Good that the situation seemed to be taken care of already though.

<--- waiting for a GTM response before I form any opinions.
+1 bi-weekly payments is unacceptable IMO.

Of course Sentry's point of adding more parts to the build will prolong the process. I will wait to hear from GTM before I "judge" anything, always 2 sides to every story. OT-but my GTM motor runs like a champ

I can see where that could go. Definitely a touchy subject that nobody but GTM would know anything about. But either way the OP post through the topic out there. I think people are just curious as to way the payment plan.

Again waiting for Sam thoughts on the subject.

OP,
hats off to you for accepting a payment plan as a refund..
However, for a shop with their (GTM's) reputation, that is quite laughable.

Glad to hear that this was straightened out. However, its a shame that it took a post to get it resolved.

Best of luck with your build.

where in Canada are you located? Van/BC?

I'm also curious to see what GTM side is but a payment plan is unacceptable unless there is an interest added into that.

Wouldn't doubt it, definitely one thing about Sam, he is always up front about his work and his business. Nice thing to have in a shop.
