Re: [DML] vendors and other scammers

I rarely post to the DML but I have to relate my own experience with Marty. 
Last fall I was contemplating changing my shocks to improve the ride. Since 
Marty will be attending our tech session I thought I want to give the shocks 
that he developed a try. I contacted Marty and he agree to bring a set along 
and help me change it. At the tech session he basically changed the shocks 
for me and showed me how to compress the springs without using any tool but 
the weight of the car. The collars he developed are well machined and 
quality is superb. The result is - excellent ride and comfort. I am 
extremely happy with it.
Marty is a Professional Engineer by trade and I believe his improvement on 
the DeLorean is strictly motivated by his interest. Like he said "He would 
go broke if he depend on it for a living" or to that extend. The price he 
charge is more than fair and the markup is hardly worth his time and effort. 
There is no reason that he should volunteer his information when he invested 
a lot of money and time on developement effort. If he choose to do that, 
that will be up to him but there is nothing wrong to try to recoup his 
development cost by marking it up.
I met Marty the first time at the tech session and he is the nicest guy you 
want to meet. Marty, thanks for a great job.
