If you need help with an engine - just PM me and I might be able to help you. My guess is your initial $10K is gone - might as well start thinking about 'Plan B'. |

I considered going to the county district attorney and state attorney general and file a complaint for theft. That much money is considered grand theft which means jail. He's also operating with an expired business license. If you look at one of his recent Instagram posts, he's got crap tons of $ invested in vintage intakes. If you have the means, I'd go to his shop with a few buddies and get your money back in those. Then sell then online. Good luck. Hope you get something out of this. It's a shitty situation that a bunch of us have gone through with him. |

Re: Anyone with experiences working with Gocat speed shop?
I wish you guys all the best - and that you actually get a performance flathead in your cars. It may be the second one you have to pay for, but don't lose hope and if I can help any of your guys who were suckered into this "deal" with GoCat, just PM me.
There are lots of ways to build these engines - with price ranges directly linked to the size of the engine, the amount of detailed "hand work" and the associated number of shiny "go fast" parts you want on them. |

Re: Anyone with experiences working with Gocat speed shop?
I read posts like this and the Paul Bradley floor pan post and really wonder how people can do business like this in a small community. Even though we are from every part of the globe, we are still a very tight knit community bonded by our fascination with Early Fords. Our community seems to grow even closer in the information age that we live in now. Positive feedback moves slowly, but negative reviews spread like wild fire.
I do some work as a hobby side-business, and I refuse to take payment in advance. I never want to be in a position where I have someone's money and not have something to ship to them. My worst nightmare would be seeing my name in one of these negative experience posts... Neal |

Re: Anyone with experiences working with Gocat speed shop?
I feel badly for all those having problems with this situation. Having said that, to me, it would only be in an alternate universe where I'd give somebody an engine and ten thousand bucks up front.

Re: Anyone with experiences working with Gocat speed shop?
This totally stinks. Please fight back in what ever way to you can. This scum bag GoCat is posting away on Instagram. There has to be something that can be done.

Re: Anyone with experiences working with Gocat speed shop?
Unfortunately, I think there's a lot of guys who have been waiting well over 2 years paid in full. Unless you're a buddy of his you get nothing but excuses. Only way to get your $ back is to take it out of his shop.

I've never been in this situation, but there has to be something that can be done. You know sure as hell he's seen this thread. This hobby is too small for someone not to tell to him about it. His silence is even more concerning. |

He's a peach to deal with. I really hope everyone gets out from under him and this guy is destroyed. |

Re: Anyone with experiences working with Gocat speed shop?
I'd go see him and let him know that you're going to collect your $10,000 - one way or another. I'd take it out in parts if I had too . . .

Re: Anyone with experiences working with Gocat speed shop?
Good thing this guy was not in Chicago in the 40's as the mob would've sent somebody in to "knee cap" him.
