I have been looking for awhile but everything around my area is rusted up.

I found one on craigslist in Georgia. I bought the car sight unseen other than pics.
The guy went into the military and has to sell. Its at his dads house. I sent him the cash western union and the car will be delivered via his carrier. I cant wait to get the car. It looks great. I was going to go see it in person but our schedules kept clashing. His dad is really busy. I got the car cheap too since he had to sell it.

Heres a pic., I paid 3000.00 shipped from Georgia. Just waiting on the shipping company to contact me for delivery date.

Almost seems fishy at that price. Engine alone is worth that.

I think your pulling our leg...I sware I seen this car before. This has SCAM written all over it you send WU and are awaiting contact from shipper? WTF

I hope you plan to port it using the sand method to make more pwr. Should be easier to port with a turbo.

Where is GA is this car supposedly located? I agree, it sounds like a scam. I live in GA, maybe it's close by?

Im really not sure. I just emailed him from the craigslist ad and gave him my phone number and he called me around 3am. I was like who is this? I thought it was a bill collector because he had bit of an accent. He told me he was James Jameson with the black mustang. We talked for awhile. He didnt know much about the build. He said his friend sold him the car when he went went to military. Said he knew it was turbo 347 6 speed. Now he joined and needs to sell it. He helped me set up the western union stuff and said his dad owns a shipping company and will ship the car to me. He gave me his dads number. Said to call and leave my address and phone number. He said his dad was in Florida on vacation and will be back in a few days Said and he would call and let me know when the car will arrive. I called the number and left my info 5 days ago. Im waiting for his dad to call me back with delivery date.

How could it be a scam or whatever? I spoke with him on phone.

I know you have been on this site a while and not a newbee, but I am 100% certain you have been scammed. I deal with this all the time at work.

Car is in one location, seller in another, money sent somewhere else. Check on your WU, I am willing to bet that the money was picked up somewhere else other than where it was supposed to be. He had an accent?! Sorry bud, you have been ripped off. Hopefully you are pranking us.

Joe
