This crook is located in Dallas. Don't buy from him. I hate thieves!

ripped off

Sent him a m.o. for $205.00 for a w.u.r. on an early 911. On
the phone he claimed he had one. After I sent him the M.O.
he changed his tune. I asked for a refund, that was a month
ago. Despite repeated calls still no refund.

I think that someone should start sending computer viruses to online vendors that screw people. How about that Partswerks guy, someone send him a virus that will F*** up his computer

I purchased a WUR from this guy about 8 months ago... Drove out to his house, paid cash and walked away with the part. Seemed like an OK guy. Very dissapointing to hear that you have problems with him. What does he say on the phone when you call him?

'89 911 (930) running poorly. (5mpg)

Hope you get your money back!

i doubt if he will "rip you off". i've dealt with him with no problems. he seems to be a middle man between you and the rebuilder he uses. perhaps there's a core shortage.
