If it makes you feel any better, I sold my Riviera to a guy with a USA registration address but he was from, and the car went to Holland... Overseas bidders are very common, and for the most part legitimate. We only hear the hooror stories and scams, 'cuz it makes for interesting reading Paid me with green American dollars...and that's all that mattters!
Clark here are some pics from the myspace pages for both the "Royals" and the "Templars". Including a "Happy Ending".Here's one from Portugal too,that was already posted by the owner,a HAMBer(to the right of the Happy Ending). "TRADITIONAL RODDING IS CONQUERING THE WORLD"!
Hi Charlie, your "old" T sedan won the Flathead race cl*** over here a few weeks ago!!!! With a different engine of course...... ;-) Michael
Hi Charlie, we bring it just btt..... Here you go! I redid the frame(more crossmembers) and fitted T-5 box and 9" rear .... I use the"left over" parts on my roadster project. Clark, i wouldn't be worried , have the money wired in an extra account and you will be fine. Michael
Well It looks like I've got a real winner here. the auction stated deposit in 24 hours of end of auction. He hasn't even contacted me yet. It's guys like this that make selling over seas look bad! Clark
spain has a real small scene and as far i know only two clubs , one of them are the royals , i meet this guys at weil am rhein ,great nice dudes whit a lot on knowledge,
Ugh that ****s. Especially cause ebay doesn't really wanna hear about it, they just want their fees. What a friggin joke. They have no problem collecting the fees from the seller, but any sort of process that would screen high dollar purchase buyers, out of the question. Best of luck man.
Hi, I'm from Spain (Barcelona) and member of Templars C.C. There are some good cars here and a few real hotrodder working and building cars, also three good car clubs Razzlers, Royals and Templars with good traditional rods and kustoms, all near Barcelona, take a look at the myspaces. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=38849425 http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=62196885 http://profile.myspace.com/index.cf...&MyToken=1ac36a47-16f6-46ee-a281-712c533ac19f Also some car shows, and rockabilly festivals. Clark, that ****s, people like that make difficult to us, serious car people from overseas, to get cars, I hope you could solve the problems with the bidder, but not everyone is like that guy, lots of my friend bought their cars on ebay without problems. Good luck with the car Jessy
Hey Django, some of my club pals and me was at the Ubangi Stomp last year, but it is far from Barcelona, and there is no place to leave the cars because everything is inside the hotel, so we decide to go without the cars. There are some good other festivals like High Rockabilly or Screamin' where we all go with the cars, if you are planing to come back and you need information let me know. Cheers. Jessy
