I finally got my package from Mopartim75 yesterday. I received a piece of junk. I had specifically asked him to verify this is a good, working speedometer and his reply is posted below. Also, I thought I bought an instrument cluster as shown in the link below his name, address, etc.. He says...

Ok everyone, I just attempted to telephone Timothy ( 401-863-0436) in regards to this situation of ignoring my repeated attempts to recover my money or get my parts. I got his voice mail and left him a message. I told Tim that I had contacted the Postal Inspector this morning and he advised...

The following is presented for anyone who needs to know to avoid this guy. I have really been holding off but enough is enough. It's been about 6 weeks so I give up and agree......Mopartim75 is a thief. Timothy Quilty 2575 Post Road rear Warwick, R.I. 02886 Tel: 401-863-0436

Yeah, he got me also. I purchased an instrument cluster over a month ago and got the same story. At first he said the package was sent to the wrong address but it came back. Then the story about the accident. Also said the package would be re mailed and a tracking number supplied. I'm still...

Ditto. You are one great person. Have a wonderful day from someone who REALLY cares.

THE CAR IS SOLD. Thanks to everyone. I sold it locally to a little old lady about 60 years young. She just fell in love with it. I am very happy for her.

I have used my State Farm insurance company for over 12 years. They have a special classic vehicle rate program but it also comes with some limitations such as how many miles you can drive per year, how often, etc. VERY CHEAP RATES. I do NOT have a garage either. I had a Corvair Convertable...

This is one reason I would rather live on the Gulf of Mexico. We lived near Sault St Marie, Michigan (that's on the Canadian border) in the 70's. I was in the Air Force stationed at Kincheloe AFB. It was the year the Edmund Fitzgerald sank on one of the lakes (they wrote a song about it). I...

Thanks for the input guys. At least someone is reading and responding to my ad. Oh well, if it doesn't sell, I will just keep it along with my '55 Chevy and go cruizin in both. I am not going to give it away to make a sale. I might even fix the heater core although we don't need one here in...

This has me bewildered. I posted this ad several weeks ago. It's had only 163 views and NO replies. Swingers must not be in demand. Either I am asking too much or it has no retail value. I sold an '86 Monte Carlo LS (that's a V6 FI) last year for $7000.00 and people were almost fighting...

WOW. I wish my '55 Chevy looked like that. Never gonna happen. Where do these people get the money? I'm on a working man's budget. Translated...that means broke!. lol

If you have an automatic transmission, then your neutral safety switch is located on the trans. It does not matter if it's a column or floor shift because the shift linkage on the outside of the trans controls the switch. The switch has a dual function, i.e. it is a neutral safety and backup...

What happened to the '74 Swinger? Wow, they gave it away. That's why I would NEVER put a car in an auction with NO reserve. BTW the Plymouth Superbird brought $501,000. Not bad for a junk yard car that was an ordinary Plymouth Satelitte. The car was brought back from the dead and the...

This car is in very good condition. I wouldn't be afraid to drive it anywhere. I spent several months getting the kinks out of the front suspension with the help of a lot of people here at FABO. I have replaced the upper and lower control arm bushings and ball joints. I also added a front...

Hey Mike, I smoked for 43 years. Yeah, I started at 14 years old in junior high school. I even got caught smoking in my office after it was banned. I had a good government job and could have gotten fired for that. Anyway, I finally got my head right and just quit----cold turkey. I had tried...
