No secret that they are done.  Long story re: Money guy big and little Rich.  Little Rich opened his own shop.

I don't remember all the details. 

At one point there was a deal with a behind the scenes guy, and the Riches  - they split.  Throw in the mix a boating accident with a fatality and there was some more drama.    Bankruptcy court.  Little and Big split.  I think Little owns Tatum now but does not have jigs, cad, etc for cars.  Big went on and started a shop re: Twisted Alloy.   Uncertain if the deal on jigs and dsx files ever got resolved.  I don't think Tatum is building cars right now.  Again, I don't remember the whole story and never certain that I heard it right in any event.

Wow.  Both side worthless, company without cad files and cad without company name.   Isn't that the body that Don has with the billet spider web front arms?  Sounds like the perfect divorce.  Fooked both sides. Sad
