Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

You mean have NOT sunk, right Frank? I wouldn't count on that.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Darn, I'm trying hard to keep quiet here. Frank, some already sunk that low when several guys kept calling the Nova guy, clearly after I posted "I bought it", and still PRIOR to his post of still taking offers. Then it was after a couple days of the callers trying to buy it out from under me, that the Nova guy posted "still taking offers". You see it was those guys PRIOR to his post were telling him it was worth more, and would pay him more that I was unhappy with; not the callers after he posted.

But, Clint lets wait and see, as my guess is that MrYenko is only joking you, just to get a reaction.

Now, you can see from my perspective, over my Nova deal, how wrong it was for the callers trying to buy it after I posted "I bought it", which were attempts to buy it PRIOR to the Nova guy making his post of still taking offers.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

I understand Kevin but I personally think that Clint's situation is more severe. Clint won his car in an "organized" auction with e-bay. He clearly was the high bidder and the seller is obligated to sell him the car under a binding agreement since the reserve was met.

Good luck Clint

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

In all due respect, it's the same to me. We both had legal binding agreements, and "a deal is a deal". We both posted we "bought it". The only thing Clint hasn't resorted to yet is confronting whomever would try such a thing. But I think MrYenko is only joking, so it is best not to get heated. Unless the eBay Yenko seller posts on here, "still taking offers" that is. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Clint, congrats on getting a great deal on a lost Yenko. Personally, I don't see any problem with contacting the seller just in case the buyer can't come up with the funds, I would want to be 2nd in line if the opportunity popped up. It's the seller that has no right to say the vehicle is still available when an agreement or contract has been made. It doesn't matter if people contact the seller after the deal is reached. But I would be mad if I made a deal with someone and other's chimed in to say a car was worth a lot more. Good luck with the car Clint.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

For the record I'd like to let everyone know that I'm NOT one of the individuals that contacted the seller about this Yenko. I'll admit I'd love to have been the one that found it but hey...thats the breaks. Hopefully there are a few more out there [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Clint, good luck with the car and we'll talk to you soon.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Kevin why do you keep suggesting that Brian Potter is jokeing? I do not get that impression at all.

If you are Brian you should speak up as this is not something to joke about with what happened with the BM Nova recently.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

I guess I should have kept my mouth shout.Then NONE of you guys would have even known of the car till I had it in my gargage."MOF"

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Looks to me like the winning bidder had already bid days before you opened your mouth at all MOF. I thought it was strange when you "watched it sell" without bidding. If you wanted it, and new it was real, why did you not bid? Trying to screw the deal up now is unethical plain &amp; simple. If that's not important to you, then tell the guy what it's REALLY worth, and, step up.

If I had bid on the car days before, and, you posted a great find for all to see, I'd be pissed too. Wouldn't you if the situation was reversed? Then not to bid on it, but ,wait to horn in after the auction is over really boggles the mind. Just MHO, of course.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

It looks like Clint had his bid placed on the car several days ago so I don't see how anyone else could think they had the best shot at it. Let's not turn this one into an ugly thread like so many others.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

What amazes me is that a couple of people are blatantly displaying that they are pissed that someone else won the auction fair and square and are telling the rest of us that they have already moved in to try and blow the deal for their own personal gain. Your lucky that I am not the high bidder on the auction.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

I have no reason for another yenko.I made this post cause i thought that there might be a bogus yenko.If clint 69 is Quickrod1 then my hat is off to you,Clint.But when i saw Kevin Sudam's name in the sheets i was concerned.But i found the car with less then a hour to go.I called the boys in Pa. to see what they knew of that vin.Iam by noway trying to back door the high bidder.But i will wait to see what Doug the owner of the car has to say when i talk to him tonite.So lets not get our UNDERWEAR in a BUNCH."MOF" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

So it turns out that a case of messed up Yenko paperwork could have been to Clint's advantage here. I'm pretty surprised that the paperwork showing Kevin then Mark as the owner has the wrong VIN, especially when dealing with high dollar, rare muscle cars. I guess the real proof will be when Clint can verify the hidden VIN's show it to be the real thing. Definitely a cool find.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

I am curious as to why the owner of the car asked me to make him a offer this morning.If the car sold last night?"MOF"

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

??? Who is quickrod1 ???

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Chris from what I am gathering Quickrod1 is Clint Richmond (Clint69) a member of this site.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

My guess is client 69??

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Have spoke with both parties invovled, Brian (Mr. Yenko) and Clint (Clint-69), about this car.

First of all, according to Clint, and I have no reason to doubt his word, he has put a deposit on the car. The owner has assured him it is his.

As per Brian, he was not in the wrong with how he went about things. The whole problem was how the owner of the Yenko explained things. Without going into a long, drawn out post, he left the impression with Brian that the car was not sold, when in fact it was just a matter of getting Clint's deposit to him. As I told Brian, if in his shoes, I would have handled it the same way. Heck, we all went ballistic when we saw his post about the car.

After hearing all of the facts, Clint agreed that Brian did nothing "shady".

Now, about the name calling [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

From my personal past experience with a similar ebay deal (laywers involved)that car is Clints if he is the QuickRod user plain and simple and the seller best not even waste his time talking with anyone else.THAT CAR IS SOLD !!!!

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Here is the story. I, like others, saw Brian's post about the car. I too have some Yenko numbers and saw on my list that the car in question did not belong to Mark H. Seeing that the auction had stopped, I emailed the seller my telephone number and stated that if the high bidder did not want the car, to please give me a call. He responded to me, just like he did Brian and stated that the car was still for sale and that the high bidder had backed out. The seller emailed me his phone number and told me to contact him if I was interested. I woke up this morning to the seller calling ME. He asked if I was interested in the car and we struck the deal. I immediately went to my office and faxed him the purchase agreement (signed by both the seller and myself)and gave him a large deposit on the car. In several conversations I have had with hime today, he has received other phone calls of people offering to buy the car. After every phone call that he has received, he has called me back letting me know what was going on and at this point he refuses to release any information about the car or the transaction. He stated that he feels bagered. He has told me not to sweat it, that the car is mine, he has my money, he signed the agreement and the only way he would give someone else the opportunity to buy is if I do not go through with the transaction. Obviously, I will not pass on the deal. If you choose to call him back Brian, and I am sure you will,he will tell you it is not for sale, period!. My understanding is that he told you, that unless I backed out, this car is not for sale. When you posted this in an open forum, I acted on it and anyone who read it had an equal opportunity. I am greatful to have purchased the car but I would suggest keeping this information low key if you are actively pursuing a deal. As I have said before, this site is a GREAT resource for information. So I guess I owe you a thanks. So thanks! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Clint are you quickrod1?

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

It sounds like Clint is not QuickRod,BUT if QuickRod backed out on his bid the seller can legally make a deal with Clint,so for the rest of us "It's all over but the cry'n!!"

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Aside from the eBay sales controversy, Mark Hassett and myself want to make double sure that everyone on this public forum understand the VIN and paperwork confusion, as Marks car shouldn't have been brought into this thread to start with. We don't understand what the motive was as it's VIN isn't even remotely close to the eBay Yenko, and my name isn't on any sheet as owner of the eBay Yenko.

So I'm responding to the Jeff H post which is further confused about the paperwork. Mark's car is 615904 as the excellent documentation shows, and also is reconfirmed to be correct by Vince Emme. I have just received an email from Ed Cunneen stating his sheets show that 615904 is correct as well. Apparently Brian and Brian have an inaccurate number (615204) on their sheet for Marks car. But the eBay Yenko is 614924 so we don't understand why Marks car was brought into this thread to start with??? In any event Mark's car is an undisputed authentic awesome Yenko Camaro.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Clint, thanks for clearing the air about what really went down. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

As per Brian, I think he deserves an apoligy or two. After all, he discovered the car, shared his discovery with he rest of us, and ended up getting bashed over it, when all he was doing was trying to protect Kevin's/Mark"s interest, as Brian thought the car in question was their car. Hang in there Brian. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Hmmmm, so Clint, you weren't the high bidder on Ebay, but you contacted him first asking if the deal fell through that you would be 2nd in line. The Ebay bidder will be bumming when he finds out what he could have had. My comment about the incorrect paperwork still has merit since the numbers are mixed up. I understand that Brian was just looking out for Mark's interest and incorrect paperwork and number transformation caused that. Still a great story of a found Yenko.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

Wouldn't the second ebay bidder be entitled to have the first shot? As for Brians concern on the car, he felt that the car in question belonged to Mark H. He was concerned to bid on the car untill he talked to Mark. He thought the ebay car may have been using a VIN number inaccuratly. His overly cautious feeling look like it may have backfired. His first concern was for Mark, not for the car in question...BKH

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

LOL...The Second Bidder didn't quite Bid enough.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

The only "contract" through Ebay would be with the high bidder that meets the reserve. I hope the seller got a signed statement from the high bidder saying he was backing out of the deal or he could come back and claim it. As we have found out in the past, a verbal agreement doesn't seem to hold any value. As much as I hope Clint does get the car, the high bidder on Ebay has a legal, binding contract.

Re: Possible Yenko SOLD on e-bay.....
 

I can see it now....people e-mailing Quickrod to tell him to get the car and they will give him more !!! LOL..what a great hobby.
