First of all, I would like to thank markjohnson. He gets it Dave Rifkin doesn't. The only reason I posted on this site is because I actually had two potential buyers who told me about the site and about the comments made and they questioned if this car even existed becasue of comments made here. I am an avid collector with 19 cars in my collection. I myself, when I buy a car, don't rely on information posted on a site (and by the way, I did not post on this site). I personally contact the seller and review whatever documents he has and personally look at the car. Even if you post documents, some people believe they're not real anyhow and some make copies to scam people. I do however find it odd that people contacted this site to find out about the car and not contact me through the site I had it listed on. Nevertheless, if Dave was an avid car enthusiast, he would've known of the Boy Scout car show for Troop 21 I put on every year to raise money for their trips. All of my cars where there in a row with "Do Not Judge" stickers on them, including this vette. We had over 150 cars at the show and hundreds of spectators. This is a pretty decent show for a small local show. This show was probably less than 5 miles from Dave's house, and everybody who had cars in the few small towns surrounding had them there. I do not have any hard feelings toward Dave but the fact is his comments were probably misconstrued by possible buyers and hurtful to me. I do believe that if the shoe was on the other foot, he would probably feel the same way.
