Hello Everyone.

This is a very old topic. A topic that almost made me quit Stangbangerz.

A long time ago I sold a F150 Motor to Ackbar's Brother. A motor that I was told was a 89 Mustang Motor. I sold it at an exstremly cheap price. I was hopeing to make a couple friends selling it so cheap. I even gave away a whole Box of freebies. It was a huge Fight in the end. To the point that Vinny and a couple other guys had to step in to settle. My reputation was almost ruined.

Turns out that my old motor ended up in his car. Making 396 HP - 486 Ft/lbs of torque. It was even featured in 5.0 Magazine.

Here's a video to prove it.

Ackbar 2007 (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=533548548667568281&q=Ackbar&total=226&start=20&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0)

The whole time I was threatend. My reputation was almost destroyed. I almost ended up quiting one of the best car clubs ever. Sadly over a $275.00 Shortblock sold in Stangbangerz Clasifieds.

My Motor ended up saving Ackbar from quiting the car hobby all together.

Without it his car would have sat in storage collecting dust. Would have never been issued in 5.0 magazine. AND never would have made almost 400 HP @ 7.5 lbs of boost.

To think all I wanted was a friend?

Where is my Apology? :flipoff:

Isn't it funny how perceptions often get out of hand concerning deals like that. You might of even had this kind of misunderstanding even if you gave the crap away, or paid him to take it! I remember deals where I simply lent performance parts to so called buddies, only to find the vehicle was traded, parted out, or sold, and yep, you guessed it, with my parts now being long gone!:confused:
When the dust finally settles, you realize who your friends are.;)

From what I was told, You told Scott that if there was any problem with the engine that you would make it right. The problem was that the engine wasn't what you said it was, and to my knowledge you still never made it right.

From the outside looking in, it appears that you pulled a fast one. And if that's true, why would you deserve an apology?

So why is this dead horse brought up again? All you are going to do is make people take sides.:rolleyes:

You said engine was something it wasnt.
Scott shouldnt have bought the thing after he looked at it in person.

If I remember, Scott chauked it up to a learning experience and let it lye. Now you bring it up again....Take it to PMs or settle it in person:boxing:
