Crate Engine Depot closing for good????
Say it isn't so. I just placed an order with CED and I was told that the part I couldn't get wouldn't happen because the owner of CED is closing the doors for good on October 10th.
I asked if this was official and the parts clerk said "YES".

A LOT OF GM DEALERSHIPS ARE CLOSING THEIR DOORS FOR GOOD THIS YEAR. GMAC TOOK A DUMP AND IS TAKING THE DEALERS WHO SCREWED IT OVER WITH IT.
A lot of dealers where flooring their lot cars through GMAC and then not paying GMAC the balance when the car sold because they couldn't afford to pay their bills. So GMAC got ripped a new one and can't collect money from the dealers. So it's forcing their doors shut.
