They were but he ended up having past customers that I knew nothing about. When I tried to help them I basically got nowhere with Jim. I tried and I even considered hanging on just to help them at the expense of my name. But my family comes first. There are about 6 people due money or tops from his past dealings. I did manage to get a few taken care of. I'm sorry to those I couldn't help.
My understanding Jim is selling all his equipment to someone else in town and training them to make the tops. They will be selling them on ebay I think.
Thanks for trying Marshal. You're all good in my book. At least I got something. More than some folks who just got screwed completely. My top may not be exactly what I ordered but It is what it is. As long as you keep on truckin' with the AWESOME carbs and dizzy's you've got nothing to worry about.
