Default Anyone know who owns CSX4234

I missed any message posted after 4:00 PM PDT.

I am interested in what Dan Semko had to say regarding the car?

Regards,
Doug

Doug,
I contacted the real owner last month and offered to trade my SPF plus cash. He responded that he was downsizing his collection and really wasn't interested in acquiring another vehicle. The owner was a gentleman and I had pleasant exchanges.

Unfortunately I had a similar ebay experience a week after I sold CSX4148. The car was being transported by Passport and hadn't even arrived at the new owners before a bogus ebay listing appeared.

Default It's back!!

A repeat engagement on you-know where.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6465

Don't these people keep even minimal records of previous frauds....

I'm sellin' my stock. Meg can bite me.

What am I thinkin'? For the 12G asking price I can put that British H & M 427 in it and save a pretty penny.

Regards,
Doug

When I see these ads reappear, I can't help but image that the listing individuals resemble "digger the dermatophyte" in the Lamisil commercials. They truly are analagous to a fungus. Unfortunately, the remedy isn't quite as easy.

This guy is slippery. He has just enough "signed" paraphanlia that he can carry this off. I'm told by the builder he even has a Shelby autographed MSO. I called Shelby in Vegas and refered to the CSX#. They were of no help. I am told the body is a Poland aluminum and from all my questions it is a turn-key minus from Vegas.
They tell me the real proof is to be found on the driver's side shock tower for the true CSX# and not just a Finish Line purchased plaque.
To the Novice with a fat wallet and big dreams though will soon be parted!

I don`t know about you guys, but it really annoys me to see Cobras sold with `65 as the year of manufacture, like this one. You can`t even say that "65" was a model reference like a `57 Chevy or something.... It`s just plain misrepresentation. OK, we all know that a CSX 4*** can be no older than 1990`s, but there could be someone who thinks they`re buying a piece of original history...... and in this auction the guy describes the manufacturer as "AC", when there isn`t a part on the car made by AC!!!!
OK, rant over!
