Saw this 13G for sale..

I ran across this 13G for sale over on racecarsdirect.

I'm not interested but I did find it interesting..

It is 19,000 GBP. That is $31,036.42. That seems ridiculously expensive...

It is in Cape Town, South Africa.

Isn't it really cool though to see this? Maybe its just me but I'm glad I was able to at least view a photo of one ...now that the 'ohhh & aahhh' is overwith - $30k is a huge chunk of money for that - so i think.

That thing has been for sale for quite awhile now. Not surprised there aren't any takers as not many people have that kind of dough to buy a collectors item to sit around the shop.

Also bump this up as it appears the exact same engine is being sold again for $13,000 or it is a scam. The single picture is actually one of the pics posted by HWND 8 years ago...

Scammer 13G

To all, below engine are not what they seamed to be, I was just scammed $13,600 dollar for two engine, it's not the Money anymore it's revenge, I want to the FBI, local police with wire transcribe, local police etc. They don't want to hear it I guess. If anyone has any info who is scamming rotary people out there let me know, time to stop this guy.

The guy IP address was from Carson City, the outer from Russia, not sure if it's from Cape Town, South Africa as a member pointed out.

Be careful of this address: classicg65@gmail.com He calls himself Vintage Guy, he told me he has cancer and needed to sale the two engine, more to follow.

My e-mail address is: hawaiimyhome@hotmail.com

To all out there that was interested in a 13G engine, as you can see by the many photo posted with the address that reads WY, it's a came, the guy been selling the same engine for over 8 years and just keep ripping off people that work for a living. Yes I lost $13,600 dollar but It's not the money I'm will off, it's you the guy that buts in 50hrs a week.

This guy go e-mail address is: classicg65@gmail.com

Now he is still contacting me and asking for more money, I will post the e-mail below, this guy need to be but behind bar, I contacted the FBI and filled out all the paper work but not response. Also local police department. Leave you with the ongoing request for more money.

If any of you IT are out there I think the IP address is in Carson City.
