We're all old coots, way past the idea, if ever, of jipping someone. Helping someone feels better than getting what little money you can get.
At least for me that is.

Sold a car to ?friend/racer. Several years later after several months of stories(lies) and me transferring cash for purchase of car and parts I had to take him to court. He spent 2 years in jail as the cars and parts do not exist. Did same thing to Hemi racer on east coast. While out on bond drove to Florida and pulled deal on FORD person for $30K for heads that did not exist.
I am out about more than the cost of two Copo Camaros.New. Do not work with ...

I've bought parts from more than I'll ever be able to remember on this website. Only had one problem. And it took a lawsuit and 3 years to get my money back. I still trust people. I'm just more careful about who I deal with. $10 checking his legal history could have saved me the headache. We have Judici here in Illinois and it's free. If they have a bunch of court cases. Avoid them. I didn't know at the time I could check legal records in his home state for $10 or I would have. And run like hell from the deal.

I got ripped off bad several years ago selling a nice stocker to a "friend". I'm not going to name names but if you know me you probably know the person. I should have paid my lawyer to write up a bullet proof contract (as he frequently reminds me) and it would have been ugly but quickly resolved. It turned out to be a long and costly cluster f*ck that still hasn't been resolved, though it will be eventually, thanks to the lawyer.

The good news is that I'm okay and I can still trust people and go racing. My family didn't suffer. Looking back on it, I can see how I should have done things differently but would I have? I don't know, I'd been friends with the guy for twenty years. I just left myself exposed to someone who took advantage of me.

My advice is keep your eyes wide open and listen to that "little voice" that we all have. When in doubt, consult a lawyer. Cross your T's and dot your I's. I used to wonder why some people took having a title for a race car so seriously--not anymore!

I've only been screwed twice in 44 years. Once, dealing with a guy who purchases Doug Nash gears, and resells them. I sent him about 100 gears on faith. I won't mention his name. And a couple years ago, a set of 6.250 GRP rods I sent out on faith. Still have only the faith. Cause the $ never showed up.
