Sad thing to all of this. He has bought so many parts from me with out an issue. the 83 front clip on his TC, a ihi, hood, and misc years ago. i have gone to his house and helped him, multiple times.
if i would see him outside wirking on his car i rev my engine and see him turn so fast, lol. then i recieve a text... usually us joking about a cessna plane rolling down the street ( my tc).
he knows his stuff, just i dunno why this is happening. i stayed out of this becuase it didnt regard me at all. but it sadens me that this is opposite of what i had seen first hand.
even tho way back when in the past he was kicked off a local forum i was part of for a parts transaction going wrong. i simply thought it was a misunderstanding and was resolved.but that was 7 years ago.
 i hope this does.
 i am sorry vinnie this is happening to you. you are a very valuable contributor to our forums. i love the pictures of the wagon that were posted on FB.

He got suckered into a g match. He screwed somebody out of some money and got called out for it, yet it was us who suckered him.

Yeah, I'll miss him around here...:rolleyes:

Not a bad idea. Guys like that need not multiply. Please no pics. A sound clip would be nice though.

I don't think violence is okay on this forum, or any type of threat. A freindly visit wouldn't be a bad idea either though.

If you read on sbftech, on the the admins actually offered to ship stuff for shadow if it was an issue doing it on his own. I was asked to drop it, and I will. But I think I did get his attention, and that's all I ment to do.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

As far as I'm concerned this was his second chance. Unless you mean by his current name. I understand things happen and transactions can go wrong but you don't fix it buy putting all the blame on someone or something else. You man up and take care of it in a timely manner. This is twice on this forum alone he's pulled this. Even if he does finally make good with Vinnie, (like he did me), it's too late. He's taken way to long and still can't admit to doing wrong, (like he did with me also).

Well I guess there's some positive things to take away from this incident - in fact I've learned two things:

1. Never trust a person on a car enthusiast forum that lists 9 cars in his sig, yet is unable to make it out of the house because mom apparently took the only real/running vehicle.
2. Never trust a person on a car enthusiast forum that is "owner, operator, fabricator, painter, etc." of a shop with "thousands of dollars worth of equipment," but insists on doing half-assed, bootleg car work on cinder blocks in his front yard.

Class dismissed :)
