[DML] DMOCO.com - being squashed by the man?

["Tom Niemczewski" <dmctom@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I can take a good guess... Steven Wynn of DMC Houston is playing god again 
:) I'm sure that he is threatening him just like he's threatening me. I have 
received a letter from him stating that I have to remove anything from my 
website that has the DMC logo on it. As an example was a picture of my 
shifter ball that is not even available for sale. I guess this will end up 
in court as I will not remove any pictures of the DMC logo from my website. 
One reason for that is because the shifter ball is not even for
sale, second  reason is that their logo is not the same as the original 
DeLorean logo, third reason is that they are not loosing any business even 
if I have the shifter balls for sale again. He is threatening DeLorean fans 
that are making small runs (almost hand made) of small parts that are nice 
additions to their cars and not as corporate profits but for friends and 
other fellow owners. I would understand if Wal-Mart would start selling 
T-shirts with the logo on it by millions without their permission... but not 
this.
What's next? Will Steven Wynn order everyone to take the DMC logo off of 
their cars because it belongs to him? One thing is protecting their company 
another thing is just trying to be tough on someone wanting to add something 
to the community.. In this case he is not protecting his company...
I will scan the letter I have received from Steven and I will post it on my 
website soon. I will let everyone see how it is to deal with DMC Houston. 
Speaking of which, don't you guys have anything better to do? Like fixing 
the cars?
I just hope that Steven will not try to call me again. Last conversation we 
had was when he called me after a number of parts were stolen from my car at 
the Jag Shop in FL and I send a letter demanding the parts were returned. 
The kind of language I've heard from him then is something I wish to not 
hear again.

BTW, The shifter balls are coming back soon! If you thought that the first 
one was nice, wait till you see what's coming ;)

I still have a few sets of mirrors available. They are being produced right 
now and should start shipping out soon.
