Has anyone heard from kim@passion4mopars lately? I sent her my wiper motor about 8 wks ago and haven't heard from her. I sent an e-mail and called but there is no response or reply.
I also see in her profile that its been a while since she has posted anything. Anyone know what's up?
 
I have been calling her for over a month, nothing from her, I have 2 motors to send and had to find someone else to do them... Also in asking around about where she is, heard s couple horror stories, 1 from a member on here that said he had to jump through a few hoops to get his motor, and another from a non member restorer who said he was about to call the BBB and local law enforcement, lol... I thought a bit harsh over a wiper motor..
Last message I got was when I called her and the machine said they were having some weather, I hope all is well and she is OK. Time will tell, good luck with your transaction...
 
I've been calling too with no reply. Have a motor I want to send.

Seventy - who did you wind up using?
 
She has my motor and my cash $325.00
 
Yes it is but never a reply. Is it weird that her phone# is out of Tennessee but the business is in Florida? Or am I just being paranoid?

first try call Jerry 1-386-215-7764 with a florida phone number I guess...

Texas Bee sorry to hear that you are not getting a reply, $325 and a motor could be considered 3rd degree grand theft in florida which falls under the same statue as stealing 2,000 pieces of fruit or more, a first extinguisher, ammonia, and any commercially farmed animal...
I am sure she will turn up though, hopefully all is well and it is not a health issue or worse.

These are the risks we take doing business with small out of home businesses that are not with in driving distance and all over phone and through mail. I sent a $9400 rifle to a barrel smith in Oregon, he suffered a heart attack 2 weeks later and sadly passed away, luckily he was a licensed FFL and my rifle was returned, he hadn't done the work yet, and it was still in the box I shipped it in. I did have to fly to oregon to retrieve it though, which wasn't a huge deal because I was planning to pick it up in person anyway, we had a hunt booked and I was picking it up for that hunt...

Anyway, not everything works out that well, hopefully, this is just a misunderstanding and she is on vacation or has been called away unexpectedly...

again, good luck, it sucks to be out any amount when it comes to money, but it could be worse, I know guys that lost numbers matching motors by shipping them away for rebuilds...

I have Jerry's number and have been calling him too. He called me at the end of August and left a message. Since then I called 3 times over the course of 10 days and got no response. Finally gave up; figured I'd save the $325 and clean up the motor myself. It doesn't rain out here in CA anyway. lol
 
Hope she is ok. I was surprised when I gave a buddy her # a month ago and he said she never returned his call. She has always been great with calling back - even on weekends, although once on the phone its hard to get off. She moved from Tennessee to Florida a couple of years ago to be closer to her mother who was having health issues.
 
I hope everything works out for all concerned, as I intend to have my original wiper motor restored by 'the best' very soon. :hello2:
 
I'm around. We've had hellacious weather, a hurricane that didn't happen to prep for, lost two computers, phones, modems, battery back ups, modems, printers, blah blah blah in about six weeks to lightning, trying to catch up, had bronchitis, just got over there and now I'm dealing with CTS (carpal tunnel and working in a brace for a couple weeks) slower than usual. When I come out of the shop it's a little late to be calling you guys back, but I always have my phone near me and I'm pretty good with email, it's quicker and it keeps me in contact.

Plater has had most of these items for almost a month....I'm trying but I have no control over his work load and I just wait for the call to pick up and build. Sorry about seemingly falling off the face of the earth, but I'm one person and I'm trying to stay on track and keep up with life's little hiccups. If it's storming like crazy and we're having hundreds of lightning strikes per hour, EVERYTHING gets unplugged so while you get a voicemail, I never hear a phone ring because it's not plugged in to ring. Can't keep replacing computers, etc. because that's time consuming to transfer stuff over and get back up and running and I've had two bite the big weeney from surges, don't want to go there again, don't have the time or the motivation for another computer

Email me, even when the computer is down, I have email on my phone
 
I see she's responded .. I just talked to her and she's had a bad run. I called the number on the website.

Hope all get's better soon Kim

me too
 
Good to hear your ok!!! Sorry for the skepticism. Thanks for responding!!!
 
Sorry to hear Kim if you need anything just let us know lord knows you have helped us enough!
 
Sorry to hear about your misfortunes and I'm glad to hear you're getting back on your feet again.
 
Ive had the pleasure of shooting the sh?t with Kim a couple of times on the phone and once last week. She is a nice lady who has had a run of bad luck and i wish her nothing but the best. She has my motor but would not take a dime until it is done. Hang in there Kim
 
Love when fishy looking things end up being peachy clean, seeing the slack everybody cut her just shows she's got a good rep!
 
She was great to me an I have recommended lots of folks to her. I am glad she and business is OK. I guess it's good to be busy but overwhelmed is another thing.
Hang in there Kim. winter is coming ... lots of restorations are on the way!

Bob from Syracuse with the 73 Charger!
