I appreciate your devotion to your job tom. Its people like you that makes performance cars fun cause your not only selling them but your actually here communicating with us for input and even better response.

thanks again and I will continue to purchase as I find things I need from you and keep sending referals to you also
That's what we meant......a company, the military, a country is it's people.

yea I understand that but I just wanted to be clear that everyone new its Tom we should be thanking for his hard work. Its hard now and days to find someone that devotes themselves to customer service in a world that is so corrupt and evil now and days.

Resurrecting this thread to keep up with Tom and CED!

Lattof Chevrolet Closed up but CED will hopefully move to another dealer soon. CED has supported this site and provided GM parts at very decent prices and super shipping costs -- so when they reopen give them your support!

Exciting news

CED was bought today by Rockenbach Chevrolet in Grays Lake IL, I will be starting there on the 27th. I am very exciting about this move as I have been working with Rockenbach very closely about the purchase of CED and with their support we will be growing even bigger than ever.
The CED web site is still closed for a few more days while we arrange all the banking, phone lines and everything else it takes to make a move like this.
Once again I thank all of you for your patients and support while we make this move.

Tom
