Happy Friday Gents and Scrubs,

Mr. Raymond '20B Stud' Crowe has moved his rotary kingdom of sexiness across the street, same dealership but

with a brand new direct phone line:

(703) 490-5296

Please do NOTTTT call any other numbers, as it will just end badly for all involved

Email remains the same at HMKParts@aol.com

Have a snappy weekend

 

Updating my speed dial....

 

lol, I just talked to him this afternoon to order a few parts. Time to change his contact info on my phone

 

Ray is the proverbial rotary man with the plan, mic in his hand..... once his old azz retires we're gonna have some REAL problems

 

I'm so glad he's local. I stopped by there a few weeks ago and went to the Mazda dealership side first in my 93. I couldn't believe it when one of the salesmen asked me what kind of car it was. Anyway, it's great to be able to have access to parts when I need them.

 

That's an understatement...

 

Apparently hes on vacation?? Until the 28th... I really need to get new oem headlight covers to puerto rico and not get destroyed on some crazy markup nonsense..

 

Thank you for the # update.

Hey guys, I'm in Fairfax, VA which is about 20 minutes from that dealership. What type of work would you recommend Ray for? General service? Modifications? Obtaining parts? I don't have a private garage at my new place so DIY is not an option. I want to bring my car to someone who knows what the hell they're doing, I was considering PF Supercars in Frederick, MD but if this guy is closer then I'll bring my business there. Also, would you guys say he's the only one there who knows rotaries or is everyone at that dealership pretty knowledgeable?

 

Do NOT go to PF Supercars.

1. Will NEVER answer their phone if you need to get a hold of them
2. Will WAIT forever to get your car back; i've heard one year right now

 

Good to know, does anybody know of any other reputable RX-7 tuners in the vicinity of Northern Virginia? It's not as though Ray has the facilities to tune, he's with a dealership.

 

PM sent; wanting to keep clutter out of this thread.

 

Got some stuff from Ray not too long ago, he is THE MAN!

 

BTW, I called this number today to order some parts and it is NOT Ray's direct line. It is the general number to the Malloy Auto group. You just need to ask for Ray. Just saying...

Luckily for me I can just drop by though since it's local.

 

Thanks for update. Ray knows the parts and always has stock of our sacred parts.

 

You're correct. In my experience (i've had to call a lot lately. ), this line calls directly into the Mazda parts department and you can ask for Ray. If noone picks up then it bounces out to the main dealership line and you'll get the receptionist. She can either put you to Ray's voicemail or back into the Parts phone queue.

I had to order some parts while Ray was out on vacation...it's not a pretty sight when Ray decides to retire.

 

Cool

 

Ray needs an apprentice to start training so he can teach him the ways of the of an expert rx7 parts guy....

 

I need a job; i'd love to learn and be able to help the community!

 

This information is so useful. The local dealer here tires to help me but has no idea as to what I'm talking about when I try to order parts. I need a charge control valve.....

 

New customer to Ray and so far so good. Called in and was transferred to him, took my order and all my info and the total call was less than 3 minutes. Awesome service.

 

Just got off the phone with him. He is and always will beTHE man!

 

Just got an email from Ray. Wonder if it's real probably not.

How Are You Doing?
Sorry for any inconvenience, I'm in a terrible situation. Am stranded here in Philippines since last night. I was beaten and robbed on my way to the hotel I stayed and my luggage is still in custody of the hotel management pending when I make payment on outstanding bills I owe. Am waiting for my colleague to send me money to get back home but he hasn't responded. please let me know if you can help and I will refund the money back to you as soon as I get back home. My return flight will be leaving soon, please let me know if I can count on you..
Thanks,
Ray.

 

^It's a scam, his account was hacked. Please ignore

 

Hey guys, do you know if Ray will take an order by e-mail? I ordered from him before. It's difficult finding time to call when I'm on conference calls all day.
