Deleted ad for COPO engine - anyone else see it?
Yesterday at around 1:15pm PST there was an ad posted with the title "Complete Date Code Correct ZL motor from C.O.P.O." with several pics and a price of around $16,500. The seller claimed it was a restamped engine that was previously in a real car, and that real car was just reunited with its original engine. There was one reply to the ad just two minutes after it was posted (by Fast67velleN20), and I came across it no more than 5 minutes after it was posted. The ad has apparently been deleted (moderators only, right?). So was it bogus, or did someone on the inside get a smoking deal that was kept hush-hush?

I had contacted the seller and he said he was selling the item for a well respected member here and the price was 16K and hed get some info as far as casting dates etc for me . Then today he said the price was changed to the high 20s as the owner remembered he had that into the motor and not the 16 k he originally wanted. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif |

I pulled it at the request of the poster because the guy he had listed it for realized he was in it for alot more than the listed price.

I am sorry about the confusion on that one guys. The owner of the motor gave me that price while I was visting his collection without checking his records. Yesterday he realized what he had into the motor while researching the answers to some of the questions prospective buyers had. I apologize for getting everyone hot and bothered, then have to pull the ad (thank you Charlie). I'll take the egg on my face to save my cleint from selling a perfectly good motor at a considerable loss.
Sincerely, Patrick Krook |

Is it hard to sell stuff with a last name like that? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

This is the WORST one I have ever run across. Please note that the last name is pronounced (with-'em). http://dickwitham.dealerconnection.com/?lang=en
