Mr. Copo,
I appreciate your comments and as I have just stated, I will probably have the car inspected. Also, I did sufficient due diligence before purchasing the car and this new inspection will take a week or two. However, the question is not whether I did sufficient inspection before purchasing the car but raher the rumors floating around that parts have been sold off the car. I would point out that Les appears to be saying that the parts starting missing through several owners after the Monteray auction. There have only been 2 owners since that auction, Worldwide and me - and neither of us have sold parts off the car.

To confirm are deny these rumors right now, my simple question is why don't you think that Les has an obligation to provide me with at least one name an phone number (of several he claims he knows) of someone who has reportedly purchased a part off my car? Since the car's prior owners say this never happened, it would seem this would be a quick and easy way to get to the truth. It would also be the gentlemanly thing to do.

Heck, I would even take the names and phone numbers of some of the MCA senior judges that Les indicated claim to know that parts have been removed. I will call them to ask them when they did their inspection and what parts are missing. Then I will have a qualified person inspect the car with particular attention to these so called missing parts.

Mr. COPO, what am I missing here? What makes this request for a couple of names so wrong? Do you believe it is fair to make public claims diminishing the value of another persons car without being held responsible for providing reasonable proof that the claims are true? Let me emphasize I am not suggesting that Les has made knowingly false statements. Rather, I believe he has repeated rumors or statements from some of his friends about missing parts. I just want to speak to a couple of these people to see if they have facts to substantiate the claim.

Mr COPO, please tell if you think this requset is unreasonable? I have even made the request by PM.
