Wayne Due closing shop?

[troy]

I just read this on his website. I was hoping he was coming out with a C5 subframe, so I didn't have to make due with Mustang II parts for a '66 Nova.

It is with great sorrow to announce the closing of Wayne Due's Chassis Shop. Do to unforseen circumstances beyond my control I am closing up shop.

If you have an order in with me already, I will be in contact with you. Don't worry your frame will be finished and shipped to you.

For those that feel the world is coming to an end because you didn't get your order in yet, please email me your name, address, best method of contact and what clip you are wanting. Should circumstances settle to where we can build a limited quantity or my shop hand takes over then we will contact you in order of request.

It is with the upmost sincerity that I extend to my customers, many of which have become friends, a very grateful thank you for all the years of support and admiration!

Wayne








Sorry to hear this Wayne. You've been a good guy to me over the years, and I wish you the best.

It appears that something has come up which requires him to shut down the business, and unless something changes he will no longer be doing this for a living.

Do to unforseen circumstances

Using the phrasing he used probably means he doesn't want to go into it. My suggestion is to be respectfull and not ask. It doesn't matter anyway, if Wayne sees this as the right decision, then it's the right decision.

Even though we were going to be competitors, this is sad news to Mark and I, and we wish Wayne and his team the best of luck now and in the future.

Oh man, Wayne has been a prince to us at Prodigy. I hope it is just business in general and nothing physical or worse.

As stated above, it is most repsectfull not to ask, but part of me wants to know why. I will be respectfull.

Godd Luck Wayne in whatever you do. So now the hobby is short one nice guy.

Wow, this is not the type of thing we like to see, again, as Matt put it, even though we are competitors. Life can throw more curveballs at you than you might be prepared for, and as was said before, I certainly hope this isn't due to something worse than a business decision.

Best of luck, Wayne and crew.
