People who let rare cars rot.

Sounds like after being diagnosed w cancer you have gotten a bit testy w people. I assume you like these cars too otherwise you wouldent be working on them. So why destroy good useable parts and or repairable cars? That primered 70 dart or scamp, I woulda bought that, and trailored back to Tx.

Ya sure you dealt w Assholes but what about the rest of us. I would be willing to pay reasonable prices for stuff. A long while back . A couple years ago I recall, You had put an ad up on fabo with storage units full of stuff. I had PMed you with a list of stuff I needed. Talking you down on price was never in my thoughts. However you said you didnt want to deal with shipping. That's part of it. Not everybody lives in your area.

I have sold parts all over the U.S. Canada, and overseas to Poland, Germany, England, Belgium, and Iceland, to people on this very site exclusively. Almost never had any issues. Most on here are super people to deal with.

I think somebody was gonna buy all your parts from you at one time, and then never showed up so you told all of us about it, threw it all in a dumpster took pix, posted them to Fabo and had it carted off. What did that prove anyways, that people pissed ya off so you were gonna act that way and take it out on fabo folks by posting pix of that ****.

A real **** It attitude is what I am reading from your quoted post.

Cancer had nothing to do with the parts I listed in those sheds. What happened is a popular member on here and his son were buying every thing I had in those sheds including the cars. I told that person 10k . We made arrangements and I had several guys including members on this site help me box everything and get everything down from upstairs, These parts filled the work area and covered my driveway for the next day We were ready. The next day came and went and he didn't show or answer his phone. That went on for several days.

Now if you looked at the pictures things were pretty much in order before he said he was on his way. He never shawed and never answered my call or called me back. I was told through his son that he was in the hospital. Then I find out he was elsewhere buying other cars.

Now can you imagine doing that. Now even if someone asked for something it would take days to find it. So I wasn't hunting parts at this time if you wanted something come and get it. I bought 2 more race trailers and another shed just to get my garage back clear.

I started watching the want ads and was able to see what people wanted that I could get to easy. Even to this day I am finding parts I didn't remember having. and I still watch the want ads.

I sold a sharks tooth grille that I shipped. I got a item not as described and they got there money back with a tracking number. I got a smashed Aspen grille back. This happened at least twice with other items. So that was the end of shipping items.

After that I sold a lot of parts to walk in's that knew who I was. I in the past would take a trailer load a day to Carlisle. I was not on this sit at that time. I was at the corner where they are selling T-shirts now out side the Daytona building this year for at least 3 years I would make at least three trips on that weekend to get more parts because I sold every thing.
I was just trying to give parts away on Sundays to have fun with people. So don't claim you know me when you actually don't, I had to many parts scattered everywhere even on other properties. Did I have B-bodies? Yes I did. I could not get my money back out of these cars.

If I did and R/T I bought a couple of R/T's. Road runners All years I bought them up. Even an A12 that was cut to pieces for racing. A 440 six pack Cuda. I Gutted cars that would be a sin today . But no one wanted to Buck Up for the whole thing. To get my money back I had to part them because I already took parts for my car that I was building . Either for myself or to fix cars for other people.

I made over $3500 this week end in parts and that is on top of what I spent for duster parts. I didn't even have a spot. I was the guy with the MAGA hat driving around on the scooter eating sausages. LOL maybe I'll get a spot next year.

One of these R/T's was redone and the othe two were parted, It was not cancer that made me bitter . It was just *** holes on line. One day when I get time I will scan some pictures in from my shop before I was married. I did GTO's Firebirds Chevelles Novas. I like them all.

That is my son in this r/t. He is now 34 4spd,dana cars. we parted them an made quick easy money on top of the build car. They did not repop parts for these cars then and the internet did no exsist. Wake up and smell the Taco's
