I meant to post this one from RK. Tons of stuff wrong with the car and another repro cowl tag.

Yep, He wins the prize for the longest and fluffiest ad copy I've ever read on ebay. He didn't even compare VIN numbers from the block to the car. Maybe someone with better computer skills than me can determine the plant ID on the block VIN. It looks like &quot;A&quot; to me.

What we learned real quick with RK is that you must inspect the car and you must verify everything yourself, or use a knowledgeable inspector. We got a few good cars from them, but mostly sold cars through RK. I don't like hearing bad news about anyone, I am sorry for his family and for all the good people that do work at RK and do their best to make a living ........... this is certainly a hit to their reputation.

Well I certainly do not agree with any of Joes wrong doings that he may have done. But I will say, with me he has always been a man of his word, and have treated me with the up most respect.

Last week, he was listed by name as an expert panelist.

Now, he's only the &quot;Industry Expert.&quot;

The VIN is not posted in the auction. The only way to get it would be to contact the seller. (or buy the car) HA!
