I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Vinnie, I've tried getting ahold of you about the H.O. air cleaner I tried to purchase from you.  If you don't have it, just please send me my $45 back, hell, I'd even settle for $30 of it.  You've attempted to send it twice and I've gotten nothing.

I had a bit of trouble dealing with Vinnie also.  I bought a cruise servo/cable from him last year.  After a month filled with PMs, I heard about "shipping problems." I finally received what a bought, with a bonus of 19# injectors.  I thought this was a legitamite and singular occurrance and I did receive finally my items, so I didn't speak up sooner.  I hope you guys get either your items or your money back.

... Vinnie scammed me too. This was about a year ago though. I sent payment for some Halo headrests and a couple weeks go by with no part... I ask what's up and he says UPS screwed it up but said he straightened it out. Guess what? Never saw the part. The first part I ever bought from another member and it was a scam.

Hmmm... upon further reading of everyone's posts, it seems like we were all buying parts from the same thread. LOL! He even used the same excuse. =/

I bought a PS2 from him a while back.  He neglected to include the A/V cables required to hook it to my surround sound receiver.  He said he would send them but never did so I had to go buy some in order to use it.

Funny you guys mention this.  I've personally had no dealing with Vin, however he seems absent as of late.  Hope everything gets worked out for everybody's sake:)

Just for kicks, I cruised over to Cougarnuts (I don't hang out there any more) and noticed he's been around there as recently as the beginning of the month...

He seems to come and go.  Seems like every other month he's either on this board or Cougarnuts.  I had to actually go and PM him and reply to one of his for sale threads there to get his attention.  It ultimately did no good, though.

He's also on Lincolns Online from time to time, but I haven't seen a post from him since the switchover to the new (more like this one) board.
