Anyone near their business who can drive over ?
Must be something like a health issue or family emergency

I agree with Linda. Rallye has been a staple in the roadster industry for a lifetime (my lifetime anyways). Something certainly has happened. Unless they’re holding someone’s money and non-responsive without explanation, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt.

Where’s Ted ? He always knows what’s going on.
Ted, can you take a drive over there and see if he needs any help :|

Maybe Ted is holding Dann hostage and we need to send a party to intervene

I live fairly close to Dann - but the problem with just driving over there to check on them is that nobody knows where they live. Dann is a very private person and will not let you visit. Sometimes he will meet you if he has a large part, but that is it.

I have been to their house many years ago, but you're right, Dann is quiet (nothing wrong with that). We're completely snowed in here so it's unlikely anyone will be dropping by soon. Again, best wishes amd positive thoughts to them.

Yes, in the old days (before my first Roadster) he was more open. He had a store and you could visit him. I heard that someone ripped him off and after that he became more private.

Oh I thought he had a storefront that might have a notice on it or something... :(

Back when I lived in Alaska I bought most my parts from Rallye. They were always helpful. I took a few trip to their shop in Washington when I had the car down in the lower 48. I remember feeling like a kid in a candy store! They have been at it for a very long time and I wish them all the best.

I just received a reply from Rallye to my emails (not sure who wrote it). I had expressed to Dann & Cynthia that there was great concern about their well-being among the Roadster and 311s.org community. I had offered my help. The reply I received a few minutes ago from Rallye, simply said: "Thank you."

Hopefully more information will follow.

So, with a drop-dead date on my order, I received a response to my order request last night. He informed me one of the two items was not in stock. He did not address anything else.

Final update. Received an email yesterday that my order shipped. So...Rallye is still in business; however, it’s probably not reasonable to expect the same level of response as in the past.

Any recent word from Dann or Gary? I placed an order in December and have sent multiple email with no response. Any idea what happened to these guys?

A Seattle area DROPS member did just receive an order from Rallye. He had to make few calls and did talk to Cynthia but still
no clarification about what is going on at Rallye.
