CAN WE SEE THE PICS PLEASE?

[SuperCars]

I am in Southern Calif right now. Been to this car twice now. I spent the day with Dustin's dad. Just got off the phone with Dustin to see what's going crazy here. Anyway we signed an agreement for this car 10-16-03. I've given Dustin 50% payment of the total sales price, some is cash greenbacks, and most is in form of a check that I've asked for him to hold cashing until I can verify the motor. It is supposed to be a 396/375HP motor that is in a guys garage that is out of town, so we are waiting for him to return tomorrow in order for me to see it.This car is NOT I repeat NOT documented as a Motion. I will need to contact Joel and pay the fee to see if it is or isn't. It is supposed to be an 396/375HP?? car, but I've yet to see that.

Anyway, I almost sympathize with Dustin because a bunch of you Yo-Yo's out there are calling him offering to buy it when we already have a signed legal binding agreement. I am sad as it prompted Dustin's post above. I can almost understand why Dustin made a post when whomever you Yo-Yo's out there are calling him to try to buy it, when you idiots calling him don't know anything about this car. It is in as poor condition as one could think. If you thought the pics of the possible DANA thread Camaro were rough, this car is much more rougher. It will be a very high dollar resto. If it is not a Motion car it is not worth restoring even if it is a 396/375HP car, and I don't even know if it is an L78 yet. If it is a Motion car it will only be worth what I would have in it after restoration. As I type this I still have not seen the motor, but am told is supposed to be a 396/375HP motor, so best case scenario is that it is a 396 Motion car. You guys need to lay off, and just let us wrap this up with me inspecting the motor to check the CKQ suffix with matchin VIN. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

Kevin..So a Car is advertised for Sale and People inquire about it and because of that we are Yo Yos and Idiots ? I stayed away from the Car because you so quickly said you had bought it. Then Today the Owner Posts that is indeed not Sold. I called and asked him what happened and he told me that you had made a offer but he was still accepting offers as yours wasn't very much. There was no mention of a Contract. He even went on to say that the Highest offer was made by someone other than you and that the Highest offer was a Whopping 12,000.00. He also said he didn't see your Post about you having claimed to have bought the Car until his Girlfriend checked the Site Today. That is why they said the Car is still For Sale. You may indeed have a Contract with him but how are we Idiots supposed to know that ? Is a Post like yours worth it for a 12K Car ? Wow...I think I'm actually Speechless.... Good Luck...Signed..One of your Idiot Friends....

[SuperCars]

Charley, is it necessary to post a copy of our contract??? I can, it is dated 10-16-03. But I would have thought guys would believe me. I can understand why the guys called after the recent post by Dustin today, but I am speaking of the guys that were calling prior to today. They are the ones that prompted Dustin to make this post today.

When you told me about the Supersnake car for sale on eBay, I told you I had made attempts to buy it years previous. At that time didn't seem you were interested in this car, or I assume you would've bought it from the eBay auction. Anyway, later when you said you had something in the works on it I respected you and refrained from calling the owner/seller of that car. I didn't know you were a caller on this supposed Motion Nova, and don't think of you as a Yo-Yo or idiot. I am the one that is speechless now. Signed....One of your frustrated friends....at least I hope we are.

I didn't call [nor know anyone that did] Kevin, but the owner just posted 4 hours ago that he was seeking offers and the car was not sold. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] Maybe that's what he's been telling others that have contacted him too. It's confusing when a seller says it for sale, and a buyer says it's not [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] Hope it turns out to be a new real-deal for someone!

I confess that I am probably the yo-yo referred to in the previous posts by SuperCars.

Sensing a ëSmoke Screení I did not believe that the car in question could have been purchased so quickly & I called Dustin. He stated that the car had not been sold although SuperCars had faxed a Sales Agreement & he, in turn, offered the Vin #. He also said he had not signed the agreement nor was there a deposit on the car. The added that SuperCars was planning to come look at the car within the next few days. Dustin didnít seem to know that the car had been posted as ìsoldî on the website hence his post that the car was still available.

The asking price was $9k but with other recently purchased parts he wanted $12k. Three other people looked it over the day I called. I told Dustin that with B-M documentation that the car would be worth for more than his asking price (possibly $30k-50k) & recommended he contact Joel before making his final decision to sell the car. I then told him that if SuperCars passed on the car to consider me second & guaranteed a back up offer of $12k plus $3k if heíd install the drive train ñ but added if it was B-M that Iíd pay more.

SuperCars, your post regarding individuals circumventing your purchase of this car raised my ire. After all, you attempted to do the same to me last year when I was buying my Gibb / Harrell Nova-Even after the seller told you that we had consummated the deal w/ a written agreement & a substantial deposit.

In closing, Iíll say that Dustin seemed like a nice young guy who, in my opinion, shouldnít have been bullied into selling his car to the first person to agree to his asking price & that he had every right to re-think his decision without legal action becoming part of the equation. He, his fiancÈ & his father should be commended for their ethics for what appeared to be some sort of a verbal agreement, which quickly snowballed into something else. Good luck to you! Jude

Jude, Ray Morrison gave me Paul's phone number, and it was unknown to both us that you had an agreement with Paul. I called Paul out of the dark, not even knowing he had the car for sale. What you posted above is exactly what I told Paul Rochester about his (now your) Gibb Nova when you were in process of buying it and had a written agreement with Paul. That if you didn't follow through I'd like to be second on it. Nothing more than that. I didn't tell him he should be getting a lot more $ for it as you were paying way under market value.

Dustin indeed had signed the written agreement on 10-16-03 and his fiance also signed and faxed it back to me from her work at Hale Chiropractic. The day I flew down I gave him $500 cash and a check for $4,000, even after I found that the rear end and trans was not original as he said it was. I couldn't inspect the motor as the guy storing it wasn't home and Dustin did not even have his phone number. I merely asked that they hold on cashing the $4,000 check until I could see the motor. Instead of paying in full we made an amendment (he signed also) that the balance of $4,500 wired to him when all the parts to the car were rounded up and the car ready for pick up.



Then AFTER signing this agreement and accepting the deposit of $500 cash plus $4,000 check, they posted in this thread that they are still taking offers. Why do you feel they didn't have to honor a signed agreement with a deposit. Why do you feel its right that I should spend a $1,000 to fly down, just to get the run around? I didn't bully them, I just expected them to honor the agreement, is that wrong???

How would you have felt if Paul Rochester had posted on the Yenko site that his Gibb Nova was for sale, and he was taking offers after you had a written agreement and had given Paul money? Paul didn't, but that is what Dustin did to me.

Jude, you really aren't being fair here. Anyway I thank you for the Chevelle magazine you sent, that was very nice of you. I emailed a thanks, but it didn't go through, you must have changed your email address.

Shor, what is your issue? All you've done is back out on a car deal with me, with some excuse that my orange Yenko from Otis Chandler's collection wasn't in(Otis owned 2 orange ones) Otis Chandlers book. I never told you it was, but I graciously sent your $40,000 deposit back, no questions asked. What more could I do for you???

This must be bash Kevin week. Started because I point out that it isn't right for guys to call to mess up a car deal that really isn't any of their business.
