Where is Cooter?

[twodko]

Hey Cooterman, how're you doing? Haven't heard from you
in a while. Hope you haven't had to go postal on the asshats
that attempted to cause you and yours harm.
If you're here and OK just knock on the pipes 3 times.

[Ghoste]

He's been on once in a while over in the engine and performance forums.  I think he's been trying to keep all drama in his life to a minimum.

[Mytur Binsdirti]

There's nothing quite like a hillbilly soap opera; that's for sure.   

[twodko]

I'm sure Cooter will appreciate the moniker.

[Cooter]

I's here. Just figured y'all needed a break.

[Baldwinvette77]

I's here. Just figured y'all needed a break.

Alright cool, i figure you were abducted by aliens or something... im still not ruling out that possibility 

[Cooter]

Been busy trying to get the Dodge sold so F&P Performance gets off the ground.

[Mytur Binsdirti]

F&P Performance

Festus & Pervis?

[TUFCAT]

F&P Performance

Festus & Pervis?

I'm guessing its not Felipe and Pedro either... 

[Cooter]

 
no. Instead of a bunch of usual speed shops just selling to the "blister pack hot rodders", F&P Performance would actually tune what the owners have.

[Ghoste]

We need one of those around here.

[rt green]

got a shop picked out?

[Kern Dog]

Cooter will probably have better service than they give at his cross town rival, C E automotive where Close Enough is the way.

[RIDELIKEHELL]

We need one of those around here.

damn right we do!

[Cooter]

got a shop picked out?

To get it up and running, right now it looks like close to $200k. Outside in a pole barn for now, but I have vehicles with F&P in Wis. Texas, and Va. Gotta get that name out there. We do restorations as well.
Very few self made men today. Usually, there's money in the family somewhere at every business I've worked at. Owner is dumb as a rock and just "runs" it. Mother in law, father, grandfather, etc. Put up the money. This is all me right now. Might not go nowhere, but I'm too old now to keep work in for the pieces of sh*t I'm work in for....

[moparnation74]

Cooter what part of VA are you from?

[Mytur Binsdirti]

Lemme guess; Wanker County. 

[Cooter]

Cooter what part of VA are you from?

Lynchburg.
home of Sonnys Racing Engines. Home of the very first 1001 c.I. V8 engine.

[twodko]

I just googled those engines.......freakin' monsters.

there's the pot calling the kettle black

[500Jon]

Go for it Cooter!

The rule of business is..........................
Always use someone else's money.
If money not available, just rob the bank any ways, (outta state).

Tried it a couple of times meself on a shoestring budget.
Always a dollar short and a day late loL!

You should never regret the things you have done, only the things you haven't!!!

Good luck Cooter, the World of Mopars needs you!!!

[dyslexic teddybear]

I've done the small co/self-employed......didn't get rich, but did ok.

Lotta headaches, lotta advantages too.

Good luck to ya!

[twodko]

Cooterman,

Your solid work ethic will stand you in good stead
as you build your new business. Good on ya!

[red79]

The new venture sounds great! I spent a lot of years in Blacksburg before moving back north to the crowded part of VA, and wish there were more such shops around that part of the state. Had some good dealings with Terry Walters in Roanoke, but can't think of too many other folks.

Good luck and give 'em hell! 

[rt green]

best of luck to you.
