I know Dave, it's tough to watch it play out. He's gonna wind up somewhere at a show with somebody who knows the bus and they will probably call him on it. Jim really does seem like a nice guy, it's a shame.
What really matters to me is that you guys give me props. There are quite a few folks on here that are true craftsmen, well above anything I could strive for. People I respect. To have you all step up and speak your minds about it... means a hell of a lot. Thank you. Jeff-

I don't like the way it's going down either. I wish I had the money the first time around or at least seen it in person.
I almost did the same thing Dave, but I thought I'd stay away from it. I can be mouthy sometimes. Even though it makes me mad, I'm not going to try to convince him to give panel props. He's trying assert himself as the builder. That's just crazy, but oh well. I guess it's all in how you word it. ![]()

i think that guy lives by the phrase "it's all in how you word it."
panel, you did great work and we all know that! you've handled this much better than many of us would, so i think you get props for the build and props for keeping your cool. and i'm with mikey, i wish i had driven down and taken some pictures while it was still near me.

What is your last name Jeff? Just incase he is at Sacramento Bug O Rama! I would so love to call him out on his lies or fibs!
I followed the build for the most part, and loved it! I hate seeing hacks steal other peoples hard earned Credit! Jon |

Hey Jon. It's Kiestler (pronounced Key-st-lur).
It's not entirely bad. The guy that asked the conversion question in the auction for his Tiger, did get my email from Jim. I have been able to help with some contacts and info. I'm sure all the Sunbeam fanatics are going insane ![]() ![]() Jeff-

Panel,
I was fortunate to have seen your van and was very impressed with your creativity, skill and handiwork. I must tell you that I also admire your response (or lack thereof) to the advert - it speaks volumes about you. Remeber guys - What goes around comes around!!!

a Ecotec in a SBT! AH!! NO!!!!! get a MGB to stick a Eco in! I love engine swaps, but A Sunbeam Tiger is just one of those cars you don't mess with!
I am about to swap a SR20DET and the 5-Speed into a 66 Datsun Roadster! FUN!! Man you got my panties in a bunch for a sec! you said Tiger. I read the questions and he said alpine.... Yeah its "close" to a tiger, but not really! A Eco in that is fine! Last edited by alt+f4; May 26th 2007 at 02:54. Reason: bunched panties |

do you know for certain that he got your address from the new owner? when i wrote the sunbeam guy however many days ago to tell him you were the builder and he could read about it on here, he asked for ways to get in touch with you so i gave him your email address.
not that it's a big deal, but no need to give credit to the turd if he didn't earn it, ya know?

Oh wow, I had no idea Dave. Thanks for doing that! It's definate B S that Jim couldn't at least have done what you did.
