Whatever happened to a guy with a name of whitepunkonitro? I always enjoyed his posts. I remember he was opening a Mopar service shop.
 
Wasn't that Uncle Tony? UTG on youtube? I could be mistaking but I thought he was going to leave us for a new venture.

I bought a lot of **** from him. No complaints though, everything was always as described and priced fair.

I have followed his builds but I'm not a racer so I couldn't tell you if his ways really make one faster.

I always thot he was too high on everything , I found better prices for everything when building my car.
 
I bought a small bolt pattern rallye rim from him. I believe it was 40 dollars shipped, cheaper than anyone else would sell plus ship one to me. He shipped fast.
 
I bought a small part for my a few years ago and it was reasonably priced and the communication was good. Honestly I liked him better as a parts seller LOL..
 
The guy did sell a lot of parts. He did a You Tube vid about parting car. He sold every last piece. Every last square of sheet metal. He helped a lot of members and cars with used parts.
 
besides selling parts, I thought he offered some good suggestions to help some people along the way.
 
His prices were fair thought isn’t easy pricing everything at fair market value. Sometimes you just don’t know and say, ehhhh, $100? F-it, post it up at that price. And it’s about $50 over the next guy you call pricey.

Ive thrown up a few things for sale and I have had a few members post a link and say to me, better check brand new pricing there rumblefish360....

Lo-and behold.... up! You guessed it, I put it up for more than new. Now where is that edit button.... PRICE CHECK! Re priced....

Tony is white punk on nitro. He is just busy having fun on you tube. I like most of it. Entertainment folks!
 
He always treated me good on parts, one time I needed a set of headlamp rings for my Duster, he shipped them to me.
I asked how much, he said pay me what you think they are worth.
 
He is more a youtube personality than a wealth of knowledge or expert.
I guess some think they need to hear it from a stereotype character.
I just have a hard time stomaching videos because he says a lot of **** everyone should know by now. Some people even treat him like an aficionado, then he gets a bunch of stuff wrong and doesn't have the correct reasoning/fact behind it...then the 318 vid where he put the wrong size bearings in..put it together dirty, switched blocks somewhere in between claiming the dudes first block wasnt good 'when it was a better starting point' gave dude that dirty block...blamed him...blamed the lifters...
Lied in the comments....and all fishies ate his poop like candy and bought it.

I wonder how many of those dim wonders are on this site ..lmao

I know too much about it. Its lame.Sorry.

SSVDP and I bought out all of his parts when he was getting kicked out of his shop a couple years ago. Since then he’s been concentrating on his YouTube ventures, and doing quite well I might add.

I hear he has made 70k-100k on his videos.
Even though he is wrong frequently and misunderstanding what he thinks he knows.

that's cool you ended up with a lot of his parts. Yes, he has done well on youtube. Seems strange that he has literally moved into some peoples minds. There has been a couple of people that have tried to run a channel just off of hating him or to prove him wrong... LOL. He literally minds his own business, makes videos of what's happening in his own life or a friends, and some absolutely cannot for the love of their own life move past it. Is he the only one of the millions of people out there running a car channel on youtube that ever gets something wrong??? :D Hilarious! :D :D I think my whole channel is A101 on not how to do anything properly LOL
:lol:
 
Tony was a great guy to deal with. I bought an entire power steering column and gearbox from him. All i wanted was the the gearbox and center shaft out of the column. He said he would ship the entire column just in case i needed anything. Hell it even had the key in the ignition lol
 
And i love his YouTube videos. Talks about what hes doing and just lets that cigarette hang in his hand. Lol
 
I bought stuff from him before. Great to deal with.

The screen name is to good to go unused....haha
 
Hes running a "garage" out of a rental storage unit, working on shitbag cars and making money off youtube videos
