I see he took the rally II wheel emblem off the steering wheel...
Is it just my computer, when I look at the text of his Epay ad, it all jumbles together. There are lines of text on top of lines of text.
Very painful to read, not to mention his painful ramblings...

It is in the video on you tube that he puts a pencil over the 350 engine not the eBay ad

He's back again! Now wants $500k, and shows some actual pictures this time, if you look at details, you can see how the vary from his 1st scam attempt, and from the actual car at the pontiac engineering building, - And the car no longer is in the UK... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pontiac-Firebird...=US_Cars_Trucks

I'm so confused attempting to read the text and trying to match up those pictures that I can't follow what this is an ad for.

Yeah, another comical thing about his pictures is, he finally added a pic of the engine...only problem is the cowl piece visible in the pic is white, isn't the car orange? Wonder why ebay did away with the "report as scam" option. I remember 5 or 6 years ago a guy try to sell a real 69 t/a for 8500 bucks with a buy now! He was reported in minutes and the car was off ebay...

I think his name is Jeremy. I actually lived fairly close to him for a few years. On PY he was shot down several times and actually made up different names on there so he could back "himself" up.
KInd of tenacious, I want to say he's been at this for years.

Not sure if you guys read the Mecum ad lately, but it appears all of the references to it being a test car, or an engineering prototype, are now gone. Maybe the Mecum legal team made a few phone calls and realized this guy was a con man. He still says it's a Ram Air 455 H.O. though, when in fact it's a 1968 400. He also removed the pic of his invoice from his E-Bay ad, and now he says that PHS does not exist for this car. Maybe too many people were laughing at him when they saw his invoice says it's a standard brown 350 2-bbl car.

The latest (as reported over at PY) was that the car was a no-show at the Mecum action.

I think a few people notified Mecum that this guy is a con man, and his claims are totally baseless.
