Isuzu North America Closing next week

[isaac65]

Awesome! You're the man! Thanks so much for doing this for all of us. The more I hang around these forums, the more I see how great this community is. It makes me feel even better for buying my VX.

Baldwin & Rickshaw meet up in Pasadena, CA


First off thanks Baldwin for offering these items to the members of this forum and thanks to the kind folks at Isuzu Headquarters for thinking of us and wanting these items to go to loyal Vehicross owners.

Fortunately I was close enough to drive to Baldwin's place and personally pickup a few items.


The James Alexander litho is extremely nice. The framed (signed and numbered) litho was suppose to go to the first 500 Vehicross's sold.
Well Litho number 477/500 now has a good home.


The "Art & Science: 1999 Isuzu VehiCROSS" Video is great. I enjoy the (hand built) manufacturing scenes.




Thanks again to Baldwin for the hard work your putting into this project.
I will see you at the Petersen Automotive Museum event. Just let me know when it is.

Isuzu would like to clarify to us that Isuzu Motors America is not going out of business! The company will still be here, in the building in Cerritos, and will still have 230 service and parts "dealers" nationwide. People will still be able to get their parts. Only the sale of new vehicles ends this month.

I remember visting the site a few years ago on a business trip.. met with an associate of a friend of mine who worked there ... He gave me a walk through of the VX-2 that was sitting in the lobby at the time.

I couldnt get a good view underneath the building to see if the VX-02 was still there... he was kinda tight lipped about that anyway ..

Someone could put it on sendspace.com as a zip file and then send the link to those interested to be downloaded. It only keeps the file available for a certain amount of time. The files are limited to 300MB...not sure how big the video file is.

[Baldwin]

Some of you have already sent paypals so that's cool. This is takin' a bit more time with 20-something orders. I'm swamped with work for the next 2 weeks. Pretty much took 1 1/2 days of work off to goto Isuzu and pick up the stuff and get things divided up for everyone and will take some more time to package everything. Please be patient. Will be on a business trip next week. Will get things out asap. Can't lose my job in the economy. Thanks for understanding. LA folk, feel free to contact me to pick up your stuff at my apt if you don't wanna wait.

That's good to hear

If anyone has a litho photo you want to sell/make some change off of, let me know........

[Baldwin]

I need everyone that I've emailed confirmations on to email me at baldwin.chiu@gmail.com with your address and VX screen name so I can match everyones and track payment. once I get everyone's address, i can go get all the packaging stuff and go ship everything. I am trying to make only 1 trip to the post office and supply store. The frames will be the tough ones cuz it's so big. If any of you that confirmed the frame would be ok with me removing the frame and just sending the litho, email me cuz that would be a lot easier. It's 21x18x1.5. The pic is 14x11.

[rowhard]

So Bladwin, do you have anything left?

[Baldwin]

I've received payments from 10 of you so far. I'm going to ask that the rest of you hold off on payment. I won't get to yours for a while. I may have underestimated the time involved and this has come to become an arduous task to sort through everything and get boxes and the like. For those that have sent payment, your stuff will come after I get back from my business trip. I need more time to divvy it up. For those that came by the apartment, thanks. It made things a lot easier to just pull it out of the box and hand it to you. If you can come to LA, please let me know. You'll get your stuff a lot quicker. Everything has been spoken for already. Sorry it's not so simple. Just trying to spread the wealth. Patience please.
