Lam-park
Now I am a bit hesitant to post this in the first place, but unfortunately I have had no luck with any other avenue. Some of you may recognize my user name and car, and may also remember that I had my Project Lucino totaled back in late January. I started to posted items for sale, my lucino bumper & G20 interior for starters, and got many bites from this forum. I didn't sell the parts individually though, I ended up selling the entire car to a member here on the forum, user name @LAM-PARK. We had really good communication throughout the whole process, from the initial offer for the car as a parts car, to the actual deal and pick up. This complaint is not about the transaction because everything was great, he even kept me updated on what was going on with the car because he knew she was a big part of my life. My complaint is with everything after.

Having never totaled a car, dealing with insurance in that capacity and what not, I was a bit too hasty in my dealings with LAM-PARK, needing to change the status of the car and transfer titles and release of liability. This is where I am hesitant. I know LAM-PARK has been a member for a long time, with roots in the SR20 scene for probably longer than I've been alive. When I told him that I had been too hasty, he seemed to be willing to help. He told me he was moving, so he didn't have time to ship the license plates to me, he didn't know the address of his new home, so release of liability couldn't be completed, etc. I first reached out to him in mid April, and there was a dialogue, very limited, but there was some. Now we are almost a month later and there has been no change. I do not have the few bits of information I need to release liability, I do not have the plates to change the title, etc. I asked for the plates so that the car's status could be changed to a status that is not street legal. I wanted to pursue this route rather than just transferring the title, feeling like I was, for lack of a better phrase, screwing him by leaving him with the responsibility of changing the cars status, something I should have done. Let me repeat, I know I am the one at fault for not doing what I should have had done from the get go. I really did not know about this stuff, and when I found out, I contacted LAM-PARK immediately to correct it. He was really personable, we hung out and shared stories for a few hours the day he picked up my car, but now its been almost a month, and nothing has happened. The car is still in my name, and I am liable if say the plates are put on another car or he managed to get it road worthy again and is driving it. I have been put in a dangerous situation, by my own fault, however selling my car here on the forum I have been apart of for many years, I expected more from someone who has been active for much longer. What I expect from this is to at a minimum release myself of liability by getting his full name and address, or at least get him to finally reply to me. Thank you. Moderators, if this is the wrong section, I apologize in advance, this is a negative feedback review, just an after the fact review and plea for assistance so to speak.

Communication has been done via email, the forum, and his phone number. I will call his number again tomorrow in hopes of coming to some type of resolution, I have simply not gotten any response from him in a while. I know he logs onto the forum too, even starting a new thread, and yet no reply to my multiple PM's. If text message screen shots, emails and PM's are required for the public to know everything, I will publish them. Like I said, I am trying to get out a dangerous position I am in, he seemed very reliable and personable, but its been too long to not get any answer or change. I am hoping this will generate some positive change. Thank you.

@isaac - I am taking 3 minutes out of my day for you right now. A friend has made me aware of these posts. If it is extremely urgent, you have my cell # and could always call me via voice which you have not in quite some time. I am busy, clocking 90~100+ hrs at work a week on a regular basis.

I have not taken the time to read your above posts but if you can not wait for me, then you are welcome to drive down here and I can arrange for you to pick up the plates.

@LAM-PARK- Putting aside how busy each of us are, lack of voice calling when 3 other forms of communication were used and my offering to drive down to you, a text message which you afterwards did reply to, the only urgency is the lack of communication and more than a month going by without the car being released from my name, a process that requires simply your address.

UPDATE- I have been contacted by LAM-PARK via text as of 5/18/15, and there appears to be movement. Voice calls are now being made rather than texts.

UPDATE- This section has accomplished what I wanted, I have had contact with LAM-PARK. Moderators, please close. This thread has the potential to turn into a "who is more busy than/who didn't do this or that" thread, something I do not want or have the time to do. I will re-create this thread if the following occurs:
1) I am not able to establish a phone call with Chris and,
2) if more than a week goes by with still no change.
