It looks like his domain name may have expired.
If so, someone may have grabbed it.

The domain doesn't expire until, 15-Jun-2009, and he is still listed as the owner. Maybe they are having hosting issues....

You can always buy most of the parts through his store on eBay. http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQ...QsassZengnbldr

If you click on the eBay listing for "TOYOTA 22RE cover, oil & water pumps & timing kit" (or others I'm assuming too) it says:

Please note that we will be on vacation this weekend, items paid after noon 5/24 will ship 5/30.

Could have something to do with it? Any idea how long its been down?

He hasn't been down long. I was just on there like yesterday or the day before. I bet it will be back up when he gets back.

Just got a reply from the e-mail I sent:

Yes, we are changing servers while we are on vacation. All is fine, I just now got my email back up.
Thanks,
Ted

We were off to our new house down at the coast to do some work on it anyway, since it is Memorial day we were thinking it was a perfect opportunity to redo and fix our website, plus change servers to get more service we sorely need. Anything to speed things up for you folks!

All back to normal on the emails, (268 just came in tonight...*sigh...it's now 9:45 here, I just caught up)we still have weeks of rewriting and loading pics to do. Emails might go down again while we make changes, though, hang in there.

Note I really AM getting long in the tooth, my talented young son Tod (Now engnbldrjr)will be taking over more of operations as time goes by. I am trying to set things up so he can handle the real work (don't tell him I said that....heehee)...

It will give me more time to answer emails and try to help folks....*Between fishing trips...*EB

THanks for the update, Ted. You almost gave us a group heart attack! Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend!

>>>*Heck of a long weekend, too. *Killed some rats, fell some trees, dealt with dialup (19.2K suks), built a deck, 30' X 8' to stack firewood on, tried to keep up with my 89 year old mom and my 71 year old brother with no legs, hard to do.

We stopped and spent the night at Chinook Winds, a casino on the way home, they love us and have been trying to get some of our money.

We are at 1 1/2 full years now and we have $1400 MORE in the play account than we had when we started...heehee..courtesy of Le' hitting one for $1980 and me hitting one for $1490 plus another for $970, just this week.

(The trick is to then RUN!...*LOL**..) Then we wait, they will send us a "free room, meals, etc" and sometimes even a free entry into some slot tournament. *Last time they paid and I won $200 AND they paid for dinner and the room.

The wife is building on the website, it is partly up but we need to correct prices since it is out of archives..relax, most went down.

Life is good and I retire for keeps in just 18 months, my son Tod will handle the business.

Me? Well. I will just try to help folks via email, all I really want to do anyway....*EB
