With the comment I gave him with the Paypal payment, I think he should know that he will not get positive feedback from me.

I doubt if this guy would know. I normally would have contacted him ahead of time, but when Greg posted it here, there was only like 5 minutes left on the auction. I notice that he didn't get any bids on the exhaust system. He doesn't know how to list VW or T-3 parts. I could use the exhaust system, but I would be scared to ask him what shipping is on IT..... ;=) -- Russ Wolfe '71 FB AT '66 FB MT '65 T1 (not running) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
