Default Combination Motorsports-WARNING PART 2

Combination Motorsports has been taking peoples money and not sending parts or taking calls. I have a defective 408 iron block I spent over $5,000.00 on that has a defectively bored cylinder and I can't get anyone from CM to pick up the phone.

I am not the only one this is happening to, see post below:

Any Information On Combination Motorsports

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello everyone. I apoligize if this is not the proper place for this posting. I am sure I will learn soon. Has anyone been able to get in touch with Combination Motorsports lately. I have ordered and paid for parts and can get no answer when i call or response to my emails. I have heard they were great people to work with and hope I can get this issue resolved and continue business with them. Thank you in advance to any information you may have. I love my fbodys..

Bob

Are you also Iamcars, or is that another user? So Combination is not picking up the fone? Please keep only one thread going. Have you tried to pm or email Sam over there?

I have tried phone calls and pm-ing Sam with no response. According to the Las Vegas Better Business Bureau their corporate charter has been revoked effective July 1, 2006.

I am not Iamcars. Iamcars is another person. I am KCFan.

Pro Stock John,

I would appreciate you trying to get ahold of Sam yourself!

Please let me know what you find out!!

I am trying to get ahold of Sam Smith concerning an engine I bought from him for a turbo build that I am doing. I spoke with the folks that owned Combination Motorsports building in Las Vegas and Combination Motorsports has been evicted. No one picks up their phone of (702) 798-8504. I have also tried calling a Samuel W. Smith at (702) 732-8968 who lives in Las Vegas and has an unlisted address with no answering machine.

Would you have a contact phone number for Combination Motorsports?

Thanks John!

more interesting news....

Our quarterly invoice that I mailed to them was returned to me today, and no forwarding address is listed for their old shop.

not good news. I'll be removing their banner ASAP. This sucks...

You bet this sucks!!

I have a new $5,000.00 plus 408 iron block with a cylinder that may have been bored by a blind person.

IF YOU ARE OUT $$$ FROM COMBINATION MOTORSPORTS THAN CONTACT ME!!! CAN YOU SAY "CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT".

i can confirm that they are no longer in their building and are closed for good. sam always took great care of me. i dont know for sure what happened over there but sam told me he just had enough of the long hours and lack of family life so he steped down to more of a 9-5 job at another shop. it sucks your motor got screwed up. i hope there are not a lot of people out there that didn't get what they paid for.
