I guess I forgot to wrap this up.
Yep I got the parts- I spoke to his family, his father and his little bro. Stayed on him on the other forum, and oh did he whine- The Mods got on me because they said I was too tough on him.
I downloaded pics off his profile and found his girl friend and her address. I spoke to her as well- I let her know that since she took his checks that she was his accomplice- since she was from out of the country- I mentioned that I would have to inform INS that she was running a scam and maybe they would revoke her visa. She wasnt happy about that.
I got the manifolds and never even opened them, I gave them to the guy that bought the car from me.
And the punk who tried to scam me? When he found out that I gave them away, he posted :what kind of hot rodder are you?"
I guess I am the kind who is committed.
So it ended in a positive and I learned a bunch along the way.
