Baldwin Car For Sale

**Charley Lillard** · #1 10-24-2003, 06:28 AM

I don't doubt that you have some kind of Contract and don't really care to see it. I think your Issue should be more Focused with the Person you have the Contract with. He apparently still thinks the Car is still For Sale as Evidenced by his Post. I would Imagine there were also many that did stay away after you said you had bought the Car as well as those that didn't. I assumed you didn't indeed Buy the Car for whatever reason and Inquired. Motion cars are very much in demand and you should expect People to keep calling the Guy. The best way to have avoided all this would have been to just Buy the Car.. The Price seems pretty cheap and I don't see why you would even bother to buy it if it was just a L78 Car. The best thing would be for the Owner to post that it is Sold and end all Confusion as we are all losing Sleep over it.
As for the SuperSnake.. I never saw it on Ebay but was told about it by a Friend. It had been on Ebay but I never saw it. You were told about it by Dave and Contacted me. I was told by the Seller that someone was in line for the Car ahead of me and relayed that to you. I do remember your comment about since it was advertised that it was Fair Game but then you backed off and I'm glad you did because I would have had to Kill Dave....

Was this car ever painted green and set up as a drag car?

Joe C, no it wasn't.

Yes, Dustin should post it is taken and should not be posting they are still taking offers. He's signed a legal binding contract and received money from me. Not only is your word your honor, but an attorney would have no problem enforcing this contract. It is stated in the contract that I am to inspect and confirm the car/drivetrain which I was told was all original, so that is why I am here. The car has a 10-bolt on it right now, but was told the original rear and muncie was at another house. We went to see it and it was a 12 bolt stamped with numbers for a Camaro. The Muncie had different VIN on it, so it is not original. The motor I've not seen yet, nor has Dustin for a year or so. Several times we went by the guys place that is storing the motor, but not home, and Dustin did not have his phone number. Aside from seeing what motor to verify what it is, it would be nice to see that is not missing. I think that is only fair and reasonable that I be allowed to verify what I was told, plus in writing in the contract, and also states that I am to entitled to inspect what I am buying.

I think if I was in that situation I would offer to throw in a Knuckle Sandwich to close the deal...

I agree with that [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] Kevin should definetly be left alone to investigate this Nova and see what it truely is. And I don't think the seller should be on here accepting offers or even allowing phoned in bribes since he has a binding contract with Kevin. If the car turns out to be a real Motion Nova could you post up some pics of it for those of us with no money who will never get to own a Motion car to see? If it turns out not to be an actual Motion car, don't worry about the pics.

Actually it is done and it all worked itself out. Dustin, fiance, and Dad are nice folks.

I attribute some of the problems to callers that were trying to undermine our deal.

Pictures will get posted when I return home.

GTO Don, I assume you are making generalized statements about the hobby, and these are not directed at me. These are my opininons to your comments
[ QUOTE ]
NAME CALLING?

[/ QUOTE ] I think using the words Yo-Yo and idiot are too tame to describe guys attempting to buy this car out from under me.
[ QUOTE ]
CONTRACTS

[/ QUOTE ]I used to believe verbal was good enough, but nowadays I get it in writing with signatures because of situations like this car deal and guys trying to undermine it.
[ QUOTE ]
LAWYERS

[/ QUOTE ]Don't even like the mention of that word, only mentioned it as being the avenue to enforce signed agreements. Never have, and don't believe I'd ever do anything over buying a car to supposedly enjoy; and the amount involved on this car was not worth doing anything.
[ QUOTE ]
JUNK CAR

[/ QUOTE ] It is now. But now the intent is to get it documented fully, and restore. A good portion of great cars in the hobby were junk when found.
