Make America Great Again!
Wow,
What the heck is going on over at Keisler? I am looking into putting an overdrive into my new toy 65 cuda and have a bunch of questions about adaptability. I have a G/Vendors unit sitting here a guy from work is trying to sell me and a 65 4 speed still in the car. Called G vendor's, will call ya back, Passon, will call ya back, then tried Keisler and website is down and this corporate bs post. Jeez does anybody want to sell something or what?
A Message from the CEO
Hi, I am Jack Silver. I lead a group of investors who purchased the assets of Keisler Engineering on April 10, 2014 and formed Silver Sport Transmissions, LLC (SST).
This was not a spur-of-the moment decision. The Keisler Acquisition Team spent more than 8 man-months performing due diligence on product quality, engineering capability, manufacturing capability and the Keisler bankruptcy. It is our opinion that the former Keisler Engineering products are the BEST available in the market. The reason for the Keisler bankruptcy had nothing to do with the products we now own nor the market we now participate in.
We purchased all of the Keisler Engineering assets. This purchase includes, among other things, the following items:
All Customer ListsAll Vendor ListsAll Keisler Trademarks, Patents and Intellectual PropertyThe Keisler NamePerfectFit Kits (and the part numbers required to build them)
Not only does SST own the best products in the marketplace but it also retained the services of the best former Keisler Engineering employees. In particular, Dick McCord our VP of Engineering and Operations, has over 25 years of experience actually designing manual transmissions for Borg Warner, GM Powertrain and New Venture Gear (GM & Chrysler joint venture). Dick provides SST with expertise unparalleled in the marketplace. SST will continue its product innovation and continue to provide the best products available.
SST brings to the market a completely new way of doing business. We are extremely well capitalized and we have NO DEBT.
SST will NOT require large deposits when you order a transmission. We will have stock sitting on the shelf. We will give firm delivery dates, ship complete and provide outstanding customer support.
It is unfortunate that Mr. Keisler chose to send an email to our customers and vendors shortly after we completed our purchase. I want to emphasize that Mr. Keisler is not associated with SST in any manner, nor was he authorized to use our company's contact lists. Mr. Keislers communication and the resulting confusion/speculation has caused us to announce the formation of SST earlier than planned. We apologize for any confusion his actions have caused.
In order to prevent our customers and vendors from being bombarded with unwanted emails, we have temporarily shut down all access (even our own) to our mail service contact list. If you have received unwanted emails, please do not unsubscribe from our contact list as we will make additional announcements and updates soon.
Silver Sport Transmissions has hit the ground running. Our full webpage is under construction to display our complete line of products and services. SST's phone lines will soon be in place to take your orders and answer your questions. Until then, if you would like additional information, please contact*Jeff Kauffman here.
Sincerely,
Jack Silver
Yikes,
Any thoughts on this, and just got off the phone with Passon and liked what he had to say.
