NVP66S Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 That's because you mispelled the brand......it's Storker . . . . . :toetap05: And what's an AMG Pacer? :jester: . . . . . :cheers: Oh my, now I can't flush the image of a pacer with a 6 liter twin turbo AMG prepared Merc engine. It would take a seriously demented person to build one of them. Kinda like..... you know...... somebody who would drive a se7en on the road.

rikker Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Or maybe something like a 680hp LS7 powered . . . . . why would anyone want to do that? Seems as pointless as racing trucks. What was that Brit joke from the 60's about Yank Tanks , something like they could put a V8 in a bed frame and it would get a great 0-60 time but would not stop or turn.

sagamore Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 The Westfield IX seller has a couple of other interesting ones (link). However, that Eleven has me thinking about one again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croc Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 The seller (Andy) is a member of this forum Pinballking. A very passionate guy about his cars - he had amassed quite a collection which it looks like he is unloading sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hill Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Croc and all: Seems Andy was successful. I sent a question and got a short answer...sold. Story of my life... "I was THIS close......" So...in an effort to not have it happen twice in a day, do we have a member in the Reno vicinity? I need to verify the existence of a vehicle, though not sure what to do after that! If anyone can help send me contact info please. hillmotorsports at sympatico dot ca Thanks Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poorichard Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 The seller (Andy) is a member of this forum Pinballking. A very passionate guy about his cars - he had amassed quite a collection which it looks like he is unloading sadly. Hey guys happy holidays.....need a little help, looking at Andy's 1972 Lotus thats listed on ebay does anyone know this guy his previous sale generated a negative feed back "BUYERS BEWARE, Gross misrepresentation of condition, no title, no bill of sale," this was also for a 1972 Lotus. Any comments appreciated thanks Richard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croc Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 Poorichard - I don't know what generated the negative feedback on Ebay. I have also been around enough to know that there are two sides to every story. I have to question the precautions that buyer took if he did not check title and condition before bidding, get a copy of the title or bill of sale before settling the balance after deposit. I usually end up preparing the bill of sale myself for both parties to sign if I am buying or selling to make sure I have the protections I want in it. I verify before I trust when it comes to handing over money no matter who the other party is. Andy has been a decent gentlemen in my dealings with him even though we have not transacted a car. I can attest that he is a passionate car guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poorichard Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Thanks Mike, I spoke to Andy yesterday....very knowledgeable "car guy" the neg feed back came about when purchaser tried to renegotiate after the sale...Andy offered to return deposit and cancel the deal, purchaser declined.Thats it!

Taber10 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I just noticed that the Westfield Lotus 11 sold on eBay recently. That was a "nearly completed" kit with all of the necessary parts--BMC "A" engine, etc. I think someone got a great deal there, and I'm hoping it is someone in our community!

Taber If I hadn't just bought the V8 Miata I would have bought the XI. I love those cars. I probably would have put a Miata engine in it rather than the BMC.
