Easy there, killer. All I said a while back was that I'd never give Lloyd a cent of my money and people were all over my junk. Gonna get yourself some red in that pretty green bar of yours.

Well, you did notice I said he shipped SOMETHING.

Yeah, I was in a bit of a mood last night. I just don't like seeing things like this. When I tell my customer that his project car will be done on a certain day, I'm always a day ahead. If you promise something in a certain timeframe, you should stick to it. If it was said upfront that it would take 14 months, then there should be no issue. I was at work last week with the stomach flu and I still got the cars promised done. I should have been home in bed....or in the bathroom.

Hey Kids,

I received a little more news from down south. It sounds like we might have some locals pressuring Loyde to man up and come through on a few of his obligations. I have heard he is now running around in a Snap-On tool truck. Buyer beware. Has anyone else heard from Loyde on any seriously past due orders?

Yes, I heard the same thing about Loyde and according to him, there was a conflict of interest at his last employer which prevented him from actually bringing everyone's projects into a national chain to be finished out which delayed yet again the completion of his Fiero work. As far as the Snap-On tool truck, from what I understand, he is trying to get a route a little closer to home so he can have time to work on everyone's projects at night and on weekends. At this point, I am sure Loyde is just trying to keep his head above water as I am sure I would. I am not defending his actions, but after speaking with him, I can understand where he is coming from and I seriously doubt he is in a position to refund anyone's money. Personally I am holding out that he will eventually complete my car as promised because it is either that, or I can basically pick up a Fiero hull that will sit in my driveway just as long until I have time to finish it (which I don't.) I hold out hope he will eventually come through for everyone and restore his name. Sometime soon, I am going to chat with him in person and will post here with any info I find out.

There may be hope; yesterday and today I rec'd packages from Loyde. I need to fully inventory everything but I'm fairly certain the only thing he still needs to send me is the harness.

He has told me that the harness will be to me no later than mid-March.

Has anyone else received their over due parts and harnesses from Loyde?

Well, I hope it works out for everyone. September was 3 years for my order. I did receive my ecm and powertuner last year sometime, but still waiting on the harness. Hopefully he will be working on first come first served basis. I should be near the front of the line. Mid-March is only a few weeks away...we will see.

Muttly, Is there someone at the Princeton PD I should ask for, or do you have an email address?

Hey Top-Dawg,

I don't suppose he will mind. The gentleman I have been in communication with can be reached at 972-547-5100 and his email is wclark@princetonpd.com. Officer Clark seems like a very sincere gentleman and I believe his goal is to resolve this problem with as little involvement as possible. I agree with Will that I am holding out hope that Loyde will finally come through with our product and close this whole deal, but after a couple of years you get tired of holding your breath. All I have heard from Loyde yet since the envolvement of law enforcement is that he hasn't forgotten about me. He has yet to respond to my requests for any type of a time frame when I can expect the product he owes me. I will keep posting as I hear more.

Just found this thread. I'm crossing my fingers I don't become a victim.
I payed via Paypal on the 12th for an ECM and he accepted payment within a day or two. This past Friday the 20th I recieved an email stating he will ship it Saturday. I hope he meant the 21st. I followed up today, Feb 23rd asking for any type of tracking... So far, so good!! I'll keep you posted.

Fanatic, I wish you good luck. This is partly what irritates me about this situation and I expressed this to the officer down in Princeton. It seems obvious Loyde is still actively fishing for more business and collecting more money. His web site is up and running and apparently he only responds to people who have potential for more money coming in. I sincerely hope these new customers get their product instead of being added to the bottom of the victim list. I also understand that if Loyde is out of capital he needs revenue to finish up his past projects, but we are back to no communication tactics again. Has anyone out there received any updates on their past due projects?
