    Use your head,,no profile,doesn't participate,and I'm almost willing to bet he doesn't own a coupe but is looking for a fool to send him some cash.

    Avoid like the plague! HRP

    eg.F1 Literally translated, it means "exempli gratia" or 'for example'. He may be intimating that he owns a Ford Pickup from late 40s/early 50s. Or he could just be a defrocked priest trying to keep his Latin active.

    Must be an AMT model kit he has because the shipping alone to most anywhere will cost that much.

    did he contact you? how did he know you were looking for a coupe, check that dumb question, we all are looking for a coupe.

    no money until delivery. ask what the shipping cost is and pick it up for the cost -shipping. but really prolly does not have it.

    I don't have a 31 coupe but I need to get to Bonneville. Go ahead and sent me the money. You won't get a coupe but I'll but to Bonneville.

    Uh...check that...not exactly accurate...I AM NOT looking for a coupe...especially one of those square bodied early 30's things...

    Perhaps that's why I never got a PM or e-mail from him...
