Can anyone in the UK positively verify/determine if Parallel Designs is still operating?  I've seen this asked years ago, and the owner actually responded, was still in business, but was not happy with the assumptions made about his business.  I understand and hope all is well, but at the same time if the business has folded I hope the molds don't fall into the wrong hands and then disappear.  Many good manufacturers and tooling have disappeared this way.  I'm in the states.  If I was in the UK or knew someone there, I'd go there or call in a favor to find out.  Thanks in advance to anyone who can figure this out!

Bartman, this info is old and second hand, so take it for what it is worth. I had a customer a few years ago who wanted a Miura built (not Joel) and he flew to personally visit PD twice for a body, and came home empty handed both times. It made me think that they were closed even back when they were open.

Google.com  Parallel Designs UK

I did and that only takes me to facebook.  Both of the parallel designs website I click on do not exist.  Must be closed

Did you try GOOGLE or BING?

Yes.  And I can't get their old site nor their Miura site to load....

Folks I've been out of the scene for a little while. Is parallel designs out of business?
