Having bounced around this site for a couple of years, I completely appreciate what I have been able to learn about this hobby and some of the nuances associated with finding and identifying some of these great finds HOWEVER I have to say that posting on this board to ask questions about a "find" draws out the sharks a bit and people get in line to "steal" the car from whoever has it. In this instance, the term "memnber" is used several times to describe different people that got involved in the process and it appears as though at least one member misinformed another in order to steal the car from under the other one. I know the concept of a fair price has been discussed here in the past and I would certainly try to get the best deal but I think the term "no honor among thieves" is appropriate on this one. If I were fortunate enough to find a potential supercar find, I have to say that coming to this site and sharing any type of detail would probably not be my first move. I know there are good guys on this site and would selectively seek them out for assistance but I would not put anything out there regarding location or any specifics about a car as people come out of the woodwork with "good intentions" and then screw you out of the deal.

Just an observation.

^ mine too

remembering back not so long ago with those/(these same?) sharks circling around a handshake deal on a 69 COPO, one of them even drove up to the house with a trailer in an attempt to "steal" the car ...

amazing what the lure of the $iren $ong will do ... but then I would have to guess that those $harks live that way every day ... sad, so sad
