Crank Shaft Specialist - Floyd Doug Rowe Crankshaft Specialist - ripped me off and openly admits it! Memphis Tennessee

Dan:

You're exactly right, "tis the season". I've talked to Doug and he's done nothing be lied to me over and over again. He's even lied to his Registerd Agent (that my Attorney contacted), so who's the one that's wrong here?

I tell you what...since he's so neighborly to you, how about you have him refund the money to you and you can forward it to me? Let's see if that works for you? I'll be more than happy to email you copies of ANYTHING that you want that will prove this guy to be a liar. Seriously, you're here defending this guy and if you GOOGLE his company's name you'll see (for yourself) just how neighborly and honest he really is.

I've lost my money to him and his lies. All I can do is warn other people of this crook! If you think that you can assist in this matter, I'd be MORE than happy to work this out with you. I can be reached at jrrmason (AOL account). As you can see, I'm not hiding anything and I'm 100% in the right...but was done 110% wrong. All I want is my initial investment that I sent him. Keep in mind that I returned the crank that he sent that was JUNK and it was the WRONG stroke too! I've been totally honest with this guy...TOTALLY! Let's see if you can get him to do the neighborly this and post the results here.

Happy Holidays to you all.

Johnny Kirk, the TRUE CRANKSHAFT SPECIALIST have left the company. He left about a month ago. He gave his 50% ownership to Doug Rowe. Not sold, but gave. This should tell you something. He could not get his paychecks cashed. Johnny will be starting at Lunati starting January. He is the true crankshaft specialist, one of the best in the business. So anybody that needs the great work of Johnny Kirk, should give Lunati a try. It is just a matter of time before the door closes at Crankshaft Specialist. There are no specialists left, just Doug, his wife, and their son.

I have been a customer of Doug Rowes company since 1970 and have always been treated fairly on honestly with the place I worked for before and now my own machine shop. Doug manages things mostly himself. He always calls you back but it may take a while. You get personal service and since you do and everyone else you have to wait. If you want catalog stuff with the junk from China, go call a catalog.

Yeah, stuff may get misplaced and you get it late but it will be right when you get it. That is the price you pay for good work. I get people hollaring about the price because I did what they needed. Once they understand I am not out to get them, just want to finish the work correctly, they back off. If a guy can relax and work with others he will come out ahead, with the problem, with his life and with his maker. Why don't you forget all the complaints and work on a solution? This fellow is not out to mess with his customers or we regular people would not depend on him like we do.

Man, this is the season of Thanksgiving, be thankful you are not sick, and it is the season of Hanukah and Christmas, smile and figure out what you have to do to get your mill back in operation and making a lot of noise. I have never met Doug in person but he treats you like his neighbor. May we all do the same?

Police Narrative: The victim victim contacted the Economic Crimes Bureau and advised that he was referred to Doug Rowe at Crankshaft Specialists, as a place he could buy a 4340 billet steel 3.75" Stroker crankshaft for his 4.3L V6 truck; who stated that he had 2 of the crankshafts sitting on his shelf. The suspect Doug Rowe agreed to sell the crankshaft to the victim Mansayon at a lowered price of $1791.00 including shipping. Christopher sent the $1791.00 to Doug in the form of a check (check #173) on December 21, 2005. Doug told Christopher that his order number was # and that the part would arrive in 12-16 weeks. Christopher waited for his part to arrive from Doug at Crankshaft Specialists, but it never came. Christopher attempted to contact Doug on February 24, 2006, and left a message for him. Christopher never received a reply. Christopher tried several more times leaving messages on voice mail and with a Secretary at Crankshaft Specialists. Doug told Christopher he had been sent the wrong crankshaft and was waiting on the correct one and then would ship it. After many attempts at dealing with Doug, Christopher finally accepted an offer from Doug to just get a refund. Doug never sent the check.

You are correct. Doug Rowe is a crook, but in more ways than you can imagine. Alot of "under-the-table" cash transactions. The IRS is getting closer. He is unable to provide refunds because the money goes directly up his nose. Terrible cocaine habit. He not only cheats his customers, he's cheated his employees and his long-time partner. He honestly thinks these folks can continue to work with/for him, yet they are unable to cash their paychecks.

It is just a matter of time before he gets busted.

Doug Rowe stated that he would refund the money but had NO intention of ever honoring his word. As agreed, I told him that I'd update this site should he send the money as promised. He gave me his "word on being in the business for over 30 years". Obviously I have not received anything from him and his word(s) mean JACK SQUAT! ANY...and I do mean ANY lawyer that can assist in this matter, don't hesitate to contact me ASAP! I want my money back and I'm determined to get it.

I cannot understand why the Tennessee Attorney General Office has not shut this crook down by now. He's been on their list for years as well as the Mid South BBB.

I called Crankshaft Specialist today (9/17/07). He stated that if I removed my complaint from this site, that he'd send the refund. My response to him was, I will update this site the day that I receive my FULL refund. Let's see what happens between now and Friday (9/21/07).
