CL find - not mine. Or would aftermarket AC be better?

To the OP; this is why you must make certain you will pass on the deal before you post the info. This guy joined the this board and posted his only post to rub it in your face that he bought the vent. What a piece if $hit.

Anyhow, I feel his price is way to high. Go with aftermarket for that.

No, the guy who bought it had every right in the world to buy it. I know that in a free marketplace, cash talks. I fully understood that by posting the item here that someone else might buy it. My interest was 2% but I was hoping someone else might see it. Someone who has been patiently looking but can't find it. If he was rubbing my nose in it, well I guess I meet folks like that at the cruise-ins too. They have something rare and want you to be jealous. I don't play that game.

Please don't assume things. I have not been a member on this board long, but browsing for the last 6 months as I have started a project on a '64.

This same add was on Ebay listed for 1000 OBO. I contacted the seller last week after seeing it and worked out a deal to purchase the vent only. I consummated the deal yesterday morning, and then while on this site saw the OP listing, note this is after I purchased it. I just wanted to let him know that it would not contain the vent, as the listing originally showed, knowing that is an expensive item within the listing. I was more or less looking out for him, but thanks for passing judgment and calling me a piece of $hit. Great introduction to this board!!

27carter,
Since I was the OP, let me say this:
1. I have absolutely no hard feelings.
2. I posted that listing on this forum so that I might help someone else find it. I had almost zero interest in it but knew someone else might.
3. Since judgement was passed by only one person (not me) please consider it just that, one person. It was a mistake without knowing the facts.
4. His comment is certainly not representative of the way people respond on this forum. I have found this forum to be about the best place to get help, encouragement and offer help to others.

I'd like to welcome you to the forum and hope you hang around. I called you a savvy shopper, and I believe I am correct. Have you ever used Searchtempest.com to do a massive CL search? It's awesome and you can find stuff that nobody else sees.

Send me a PM and I'll elaborate.

Lug,
Thanks for your kind words. From browsing, I have found the forum to have invaluable information. I like to think, probably like most, that I am good at finding things on the internet. Have done some other large CL searches, but have not tried searchtempest.com.... I'll check it out. Thanks again for the friendly words!
