Steve If you were to tell me the UK address I could try & check if it's real or made-up. They could pick up any old genuine address but it might not be an area that's likely to have a warehouse? Dont want anyone spoiling US/UK Mopar relations! ;) Robert 63 Polara 500 England Steve Mick wrote:I had a person named Gary Buchannan offer to sell me the much needed 62-65 B body big block clutch fork that I had posted in our website swapmeet section I answered his email to me, that yes I would still be needing one and requested pictures. I recieved an excuse that he could not get them to post, so I asked for a description as to overall length and some distinctive features. I was then told that it was in the warehouse and to send a Western Union or money gram and they would send it right out to me. This was an UK address -----Now, I have gotten quite comfortable with trusting the folks on the mailing list, but hmmmmm- I smell a RAT! About 11:00 last night , right after I sent him my last e-mail, I get a phone call from him" oh sir, I assure you we have the part you need and you can trust me". I don't want to type-cast, but that lilly white name- Gary B. had such a distinctive Middle East accent ( and I don't mean USA ) I think maybe-- SCAM!!!
