From my british car web board: see what happens when a guy orders and pays for a part and the parts dealer fails to deliver!

Just as I was reading this post I got a call from the guy I purchased my Ducktail from. He was just letting me know he recieved my check and was shipping it today. I guess I have been blessed with only dealing with good honest people. (knock on wood) It's too bad crap like this happens, it makes everyone else leary.

First rule of the internet: whenever you see anything that's so cool it'll get millions of hits--or so controversial it will offend people--make a copy quick!

Nah. censorship is rare on that site. The subject was just archived. Here's the link: (might not be accessible for non-members.) http://www2.mgcars.org.uk/cgi-bin/gen5?runprog=mgbbs&mode=archiveth&archiveyear=110_2001.dat&access=10151171501086&subject=110&subjectar=110&source=T&thread=2001071718465810379

Guys, keep in mind that when Kurt first posted this it was back in Aug 2001. Things change.

You bumped a four year old pointless thread, to make a joke? if I tell those British car guys you did that, they'll mail bomb you.

Rally, what can I say, the kids and wife went to bed early, TV was lame, didn't feel like reading/writing any more, got the crazy hair to see what the first thread was and then thought what the heck... Kurt V could use a lil claim to fame.

Why don't the English make computers?
