Richard and the rest,
If the guy doesn't want to sell his wares at a show, that's his
perogative. If you want references from him because you are interested in
his vehicles, feel free to ask him off-list to get an idea what you
personally are getting into. Please refrain (this goes for everyone, of
course) from slandering anyone publicly on a forum designed to help people
with technical questions and to sell the occasional heap of vintage metal.
No need to respond in-kind when somebody hurts your ego because none of us
form our opinions from what just one person says. Not to worry, you seem
like a fine fellow to me and "the Ukranian" is probably a fine character as
well. Let's all give people the benefit of the doubt until it's time to
sign a check.
Happy New Year to all,
John
