Company info:Roscoe's Phaeton Engineering will be no longer, e are changing our name to Phaeton Motorwerks. In the move from Austin TX to Durham NC I no longer have any certified engineers on staff, ubsequently, C law requires you to have them on staff to use Engineering in your company name. Fair enough and obvious. All reviews and customers are being transferred from RPE to PM, LC as soon as we get the business name approval from the Secretary of the State. Should be by the end of the week. Same goes for the website. Should be up again by the end of the week. Sad.
