Hey I got ripped on a motor/tranny/tcase deal on Ebay for $1400. So I am back in the hunt for one. Please PM me
Thanks
Jon

I have spoke to a few of you in the past. And unfortunately recently deleted all PMs and text. Thinking this last deal was a sure thing. So If we spoke before please contact me again.

WARNING::::::: These f-ing crooks are in the Miami area. And are about to put a white 94 80 with a used Toyota deisel conversion in it up for sale. So buyer beware with these low life POS mother f*ckers! The engine they sold me was described as having 126k miles, no leaks and "perfect running condition". After I recieved it I had doubts. Just from the visual I was concerned. It had all kinds of leaks(the usual). So presurred him to get me the vin of the truck he pulled it from. Checked on Toyota's service history. And found that it had 156,348 miles 18 months ago at its last known service. Still not bad mileage for a 94. Considering mine has 223k on it. SO I tried to work with him a bit. And stated that if the motor checked out compression wise. I would still take it but at a discount of 3-5 hundred. Well I finally got to check the compression. Number one cyclinder 185psi= number six 55psi!
And it has been sitting and rusting away inside for over a year. Sux to think these ba$tards are part of the 80 LC community.

Did you start a claim with eBay and PayPal?

 

[swampfoxSC]

Oh yeah. I opened a case as soon as I found out he lied about the mileage. But who knows how long this will drag out. I have never had to to do anything like this. I have been using Ebay as long as they have been around. And have never got ripped off on the hundreds of tranactions I have had. And have bought from all over the world. Sux it was LC guy that screwed me over.
