Buying and Selling is important for me for more than one reason but the main reason is I learn more of what is and is not available and what the value of these parts are.
I don't see where there should be a problem with B&S. It is not eBay and the Board (Josh) should not have to put time into disputes. The deals are between the buyer and seller and the Board has little to do with it. We are big people and should be able to make honest deals. The buyer should always ask lots of questions and ask for written statements if their money and the parts ar eimportant to them. The seller should be as good to the buyer as they would themselves. Honesty is not that difficult to accomplish. If you are dishonest and/or a crook then you have to live with yourself.

After I got off the board on Sunday, I did the paid subscription. I have done this before, but actually lost interest in my '69 for a while. Still got it...still needs paint....interior.....etc. Still runs great and drives like it should. Got waaaay tooooo much invested for the way it looks, but driving it is a hoot. My grandson wants to get it painted, but I've had to pay too many of his momma's car payments, insurance payments, house payments, medical bills, school tuition, etc., to do both. I'm glad she's on her own, for now and making money, instead of siphoning mine off. Now, if I can only get enough of it back to get started on the body work......

This is a great website and I have enjoyed it immensely over the past several years. I have gotten a lot of helpful information and I've tried to share some of what I know. It's really been almost two years since I was really into the scene on a daily basis. The garage is full, because I hoard stuff......you never know when you might need it, right? But, for those who have not yet considered the paltry $25 per year, give it a little more thought.

Like I said before, Josh, you're doin' a great job. I know your plate if full....if not running off all the edges. You've got to take care of your mom, while you've still got her. It's what we do, right? Take care of each other.
