Yes, except in this case he sold the parts and kept all the money.

He actually texted me that he couldn't pay me because his money was going to pay the guy restoring a 1969 Hurst Olds that he bought, he even brags about that car on his website. Its been suggested that he pulls this trick on people, and when the value of the parts double over time, he then pays the original price on the checks. Its like getting free parts.

I have complained to the Indiana Attorney General.

I want to make restorers aware of a bad situation I am having with a parts seller. His name is Ron Memmer and he owns Ron's Classic Cutlass in Monticello, Indiana. He has 3 warehouses filled with New Old Stock parts for Olds 442 and Cutlass. He found out I had some of the rarest 442 parts in existence and stopped by and offered to purchase them. He spent alot of time telling me about his business and how he was honest. I believed him and like a fool took his business check as payment. That was 3 years ago. He texted me after leaving with my parts saying the check was no good, he would pay me later. He gave me a story as to why he could not return the parts. I am posting this so no one else gets burned. He are the actual text conversation between Ron Memmer and me:

I am afraid that will have to wait until I can get to the storage a couple hours away. Sorry.

Wow, seems to match.

Could they be from a Duesenberg J Dual Cowl car?

A collection of parts from many different makes.

Would it be from the actual factory?

This appears to be wooden, does anyone know what it is?

That's the car, they made 63 total. Unfortunately, the rest of the car is missing.

Its a 1953 Allard K3

Just bare blocks.

I see what you mean

Not a Crosley, they didn't have the headlight "cans".

Metal. Notice the dent at the bottom rear of the left side. The 2 holes at the top are distinctive (I wonder what is their purpose), and the "bulge" along the front half of the wheel well is unusual. I looked at all the sports cars made between 1946-1959 and didn't see one with that bulge.

Are the La France 12 cylinder blocks desired by anyone other than fire truck owners?

Can anyone identify this? The rear opening appears to be a trunk as opposed to a rumble seat.

It will be awhile before I can measure, I was hoping someone would recognize the shape.
