        if it is the car i think it is (after reading the mod list, its identical to a members old car which he sold not very long ago), it may or may not have had some questionable maintenance done to it. think hackjob.

        ask kershaw about the flat black e30 he used to own. same member sold him that car.

                i wouldn't ever let him work on my car. Buying parts from him is one thing if you inspect them yourself first, but buying a complete car could be a potential nightmare.

                every story i hear from him about his cars is always "it was like that when i got it", when i know for a fact it was something he did.

                  agreed, but to add to the parts on top of the cars, I once needed a cabrio fender. Cough cough greg cough cough offered a rust free fender. Mind you, he knows me and we are "friends".

                  He had bought a few parts from me in the past. I show up at his place, and the fender was half rusted out. He told me "you can just grind it off... The rust was at the pinch weld seam that almost rusted through.... Not to mention I got on the phone with him and he assured me that it was super mint and completely rust free.

                  I know quite a few history to 2 of the cars he sold, it was beyond bad. We are talking about missing radiator hose clamps, random screws holding on pieces of the car. Random holes drilled for mounting things.

                  He is a decent guy, we had a meet at his place that he hosted. But I would never buy anything from him, car or parts.

                                this thread should answer a couple questions:


                                kershaw states his opinion of greg clearly.
