Does he use the same description every time?

I think he uses a generic template and fills in the blanks for each vehicle. I also heard he shoots blanks too!

Damn! If I could find the time to haul it back, I would buy that lot for $3500.

Word gets around.

 

[TCSTARK]

Well, if his builds were crappy and these accumulated parts weren't good enough to use on them I feel pretty confident that these parts are sub par at best.

Boom, drops the microphone

1978 Toyota Land Cruiser | eBay

Up for sale is my 78 Land Cruiser BJ40 diesel. These are very rare as they were not imported to the United States. Since purchasing it I replaced all door rubber weather seals, breather vent gasket, aluminum radiator, water pump, clutch master and slave cylinders with a stainless feed line.

I remember this guy. He also works with/ collaborates some self-proclaimed photography guy who's equally as much a scammer. I'll remember his name as well. I hope they both get shut down.

I thought he changed horses and got into "restoring" Fords or Chevys.
He's like the flu--comes back every year in just a little different disguise.

What is truly sad is the existence of a thread here that's devoted to exposing crooks--so many of them !

 

[NicaNorth]

This thread is a perfect example in that “restore” and “rebuilt” cannot be used interchangeably.

 

[Stumpalama]

So, what is "perfect compression"?

 

[FJ40Jim]

Perfect compression= good enough to flip on ebay to an out of state buyer.

I still need to find someone for the body work... maybe switching out to a new tub.
