yeah i know, you all read what a beater this dude is the last time his name came up on here. well i was one of the only guys defending this piece of shit at the time. he did build me a nice set of headers, problem was one side didnt fit right. so after contacting him i sent them back. he called me back not to long after getting them and said they were fixed. i figured that when i got them back they were going to be chromed i would have him build me a second pair. my plan was to have a chrome pair for shows and another pair for just driving. anyway... i havent heard shit from this asshole in months.does anyone know what is goin on with this fucker??? is he dead? if hes not maybe he needs a good ass kickin! any of you hambers from spokan washington??? maybe somebody could pay him a visit? oh yeah, i also paid him already for both pairs. before anyone asks why i had him do a second pair, it was because i didnt have any problem with him building the first set. if anyone has any info on this matter you can call me at (203)924-4896 any help would be appreciated.
im from spokane whats the deal with this guy i heard me makes awsome stuff but hes appsetnmind as hell or something
can't believe their isn't anyone on the east coast that builds headers. if people continue to sent this guy money this shit will continue. i'm not going to bash this guy but remember the last thread about this subject gave dude plenty of chances to defend his position and he did nothing so the red flags are there. hope it works out for you.
Im not about to defend Dan. It seems everyone he does a set of headers for winds up calling me to complain. I dont have much contact with him. i have the same ph. number as the rest of you. If I were you I would keep a watch on ebay. His listings are now under his dads name, but they all say" I welded for the offroad industry and i trust my welds at 100 mph. The listings are from Spokane or San Diego and are always ratty slammed 1927-37 project cars. From there you can email him and Im assuming you will get a responce.Im pretty sure you will get what you ordered. Dan usually gets his stuff out, but only after a LONG time and much hassle.
well theres not much i can do from connecticut, so unless any of you spokan hambers wanna pay him a visit and let me know whats goin on, i guess ill just have to ride it out.or if anyone out here wants to build me a set of pipes gimme a call. im not sure if you can see my pics in my intro, if not you might have seen my 36 in the july issue of street rodder. i suck at the computer and have trouble posting pics.ill see if i can get some on though. thanks .
Oh No Goober did I mess up while i was typing call the fucking grammer police. Do any of you english majors have anything better to do. I think everyone got what I was saying. Jackaass
Hey I was up at Dan's place today and your headers are done. (they look pretty nice too I may add) He's says he'll be shipping them out at the end of the week. That's what he says, I bet it will be Monday, but they are done and I saw your address tacked up next to them. Hope this helps some, he's not a crook, just really slow at times.
Did anybody ever post other threads about him in this one? Like this: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=313206&highlight=dan+king Or this: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=200685&highlight=dan+king
how about a pic of this guy at the post office on monday , seems like he has done a lot of people wrong - what a scumbag !!!
It's a frickin shame every time this guys name comes up that Jim Sibley gets dragged into this...give this guy a brake..... just my 02.cents
I paid for a set of headers from Dan king king speed-n-custom on march 1st 2010 they were for a 455 olds so I had to contact him directly for a custom order. They were going to be a gift to my father for his rat rod. after about 3 months he would no longer take my calls. I contacted the Washington State Attorney generals office and filed a complaint. He would not respond to them they recently contacted me telling me there was nothing else they could do for me. If any body has any kind of line on this guy I would appreciate any info I could get he needs a complete ass whipping but I would be satisfied with filing a complaint with the Spokane pd and getting him busted. <!-- / message -->
I'm not a member of the grammar police. I represent the Spelling Police. You are in violation of sec. 1.3-7 subsection 29a which states the "jackaass" is spelled "Jack Ass". Jack Ass. LOL I couldn't resist!
1) i would say that this person has mental problems. Therefore do not deal with this person no matter how good the finished product is. This same train of thought might also apply to women. 2) i would also say that if you have an engine/engine-chassis combo that is not real popular, i.e., olds 455 in a t-bucket, or even a 455 in a cutlass, then either make the headers yourself, deal with someone locally, or stick with the stock exhaust manifolds.
Hmm, something I wrote just got deleted-I can't even remember what it was. Not to worry, the whole damn thread's too old-I had hair that long ago. Best of luck to anyone waiting for anything. If you need more reading, here's a link to an even older originating thread. I'm not in that one. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=488054&highlight=dan+king&showall=1
