    grolan gas tank float assembly fabrication

    in Technical

    Posted

    I have recently completed fabrication of a Grolan gas tank float assembly for my 1927 433 packard, After several months of searching for one with no luck I decided to fabricate my own. Its made of stainless steel and should out last any current car owner.

    Im open to any other specialty fabrication needs and would love to hear from any who is in need of such services.

    Thanks

    I had sent 300 dollars originally a few days begire I found out, then I wired 2300 for some axles thank goodness money gram flagged the final 950.00 that was all I got back.... Im

    out 2,600.00 dollars. A hard lesson to learn. 

    Ive hired a pi to look into it, not sure if I'll find much.

    as sad as I am to say this I now need to expose the second person who has scammed me out of money with no parts coming my way.
    Unfortunately for me These both happened in tandem and I didn't understand the signs of a scammer.
    The second scammer is call John Taylor his email is JT3059@gmail.com
    He also contacted me thru this email after I posted my need for parts for my cars.
    He even today refuses to refund my money or send me my parts, he like the other scammer wanted his money thru money gram, (actually Money gram is the one that alerted me to the fact that John Taylor was a scammer and has scammed others and has been reported to money gram)
    I just thought everyone here should know about this thief and his methods.
    Thank you

    well both of these guys told me their pay pal accounts weren't working so they wanted to use money gram, so for me that is the key thing Ill be looking for.

    I look back now and realize that lt was all a bit to good to be true I guess....

    He emailed me from his personal email, "johnsautomobileshop@gmail.com"

    I assume he got it off my profile on the site, I don't list it on my messages.

    Luckily Im only out 300.00 dollars and I was able to find a post about him on a mustang parts site telling that he was a scammer and never sent parts to multiple people there.

    He says he's from Timberlake, NC but there is no home at the address he gave me.

    Unfortunately for me I have a second person that I also believe to be doing the same thing, I was notified today by money gram and they saved me from losing 950.00, I won't post his name until i know for sure, but I'm pretty confident he's doing the same thing.

    I appreciate your response and maybe you can locate him by this email address, he goes by the name of John Stigall.

    Thanks

    One of the scammers is:
    John Stigall from timberlake, NC
    he uses a phone number 336-365-5405
    He is fake he is not real
    He is listed on a mustang site as a scammer as well, I would hope that whomever runs this site would ban him from acces if at all possible.
    Thanks

    It appears that I have run into a couple scam suppliers either from this site or the Packard info site, these two suppliers have emailed me after seeing my post on one or both of these sites.
    I hesitate to name them at this time but will in the next few days once its verified.
    Id appreciate any input from the members regarding this and any ways to limit this from happening.
    I will post names later 
    Thanks

    That sounds like a very good plan to follow as well.

    Mine too is a four speed so I will surely look in to the overdrive option, do you happen to have part numbers or other info for this overdrive set up?

    I looked at mine this morning and here are all the numbers I can find on it.

    "140436-12-61-Packard 0 30   577"

    Not sure what these numbers mean, but hopefully they will mean something to those knowledgeable enough in these matters.

    Thanks for your input, I really appreciate it
