Ya know , I'm REALLY suprised that this one got through. Customs Agents have recently raided several vendors over Fake Ford pieces lately . Chrysler was on the war path back in the late 80's . I was at one show in North Carolina vending Licenced products mind you only to have to bail out a friends whom was selling Chrysler Hat Pins of all things . Ed Shaver


see ya on the road folks !

And it wasn't that long ago that Harley Davidson was going around to shows looking to put the wrath of god on anyone with a Harly globe. Why arn't these companies going after these guys. I know they need to get the Manufacturer but I know they take the whole parts inventories of the distributors and destroy them when it's parts that ar repoped with out their blessing.


Thanks
Mike

You can count on this garbage turd to pump out a few new gems every month. They are destined for our shores. Antique dealets and uneducated buyers will be proud new owners for sure.

Here is their latest creation

I would think that the pickwick sign would be a tough one to pick out pf the litter. I wonder if they have someone stateside that is directing their choices in signs???

Look again, the license plates aren't originals they just copied the makers mark on the back as well. Any sign they describe as "It is Handmade" is a fake handmade by them. It's a play on words to protect themselves.

Okay.....

Keith and I conversed about why I and some others think there is a problem with the plate... But we could be wrong... If so it won't be the first time nor the last....

I'm not going to India to handle it, nor am I going to bid on it... So I probably will never know for sure....

I think most everyone agrees that this seller isn't the most trustworthy one selling items on Ebay... LOL

I understand completely... And hopefully I am mature enough to respect everyone's opinions... (even tho I have been known to throw a temper tantrum or two or more at times... LOL)
