Lets put it this way........I live in Colorado & I'm seriously considering trailering my car to Washington for him to work on, if I cant get the damn thing fixed myself. Who cares wheather hes a vendor or supporter?
If the question must be answered, I'd say he's a supporter of the hobby & a supporter to all the members with dumb-assed questions like most of mine.
Thanks to Jeff & many others here for your knowledge & willingness to share it with us noooooooobs!!
