Let’s just say...there are parts guys out there on THIS site that want to resell your parts ....do your homework before getting taken advantage of...I see it all the time ...no one sticks up for the little guy. I am not interested in the parts but want to explain to you ...don’t get taken advantage of...I am sure this post will be deleted ...so I will screen shot it. I believe in doing the right honest thing.

I'm not doubting what you're saying here and I do agree - but sometimes that is OK with the seller and no one is taken advantage of. Offering a lot size price to buy everything in 1 shot is not always a hostile take over situation.

Asking for help on pricing/value is a good idea...I have seen on this site a number of times. Everyone wants to get a good deal...but's it's only a 'good deal' if both sides are happy

I sent him a PM about the M20 trans with the Nova VIN...I know there are folks who might like to find the original trans for their car...I would like to help make that connection if possible.

Had this been a supercar for sale thread instead of parts with no price ,there would be a swarm of people en route to the sellers address looking for every clue as to where the seller lived , what tree was in the pics and whos neighborhood it was... We are to believe that these potential buyers are all trying to get there first simply so they can ensure the seller doesnt get taken advantage of by the next guy. They will then tell him what top dollar is, and then give it to him

Agreed...seen it many many times...and some of those people are on this site. They call it helping....I call it ...helping themselves.

Some Supercars it takes years and years of patience to buy. Some guys can’t wait that long. Most owners are offended by LOW BALL offers...just ask them for yourself....I guess when you want a steak dinner ...you shouldn’t expect to pay for a bologna sandwich.

In this day in age with the price of rare cars and parts it is the responsibility of both the seller and buyer to do there homework. If that means finding someone who knows more about something than you do so be it. In my opinion there is no reason anyone should get taken advantage of unless you don't take the time to learn about the car, product or service they are you are buying or selling.

This sure does bring back memories. It was 2005, I wanna say and noticed a Gold 69 Yenko Camaro for sale. I knew a board member was looking for one and I notified him about it. He asked if I would look it at for him cause it was closest to me then him. So why wouldn't I. As I was looking into this car I received a phone call from a fellow board member to and I quote.. abort mission, I have someone interested. So I should back off cause you say so.. Really !? That's just one of many I could tell ya's
