But ShopCat will tell you FicaFrio is owned by a Billionaire and rich people don't steal because they don't need the money.

The rich kids I know steal for sport and entitlement.

I simply said I don't think Jerry Seinfeld would soil his name over two hundred grand... I don't think it takes a ton of thought to come to this conclusion.

You're new. I'm just being a smart azz; as usual. Don't take it personal.

What's your problem ?

Nukar is the only one who seems to have an idea of what's ahead, he hinted at this second lawsuit ...

Isn't Seinfeld is doing the same in the lawsuit ?

Those accusations are dead serious, reputation destroying stuff. Seinfeld would make them without any shred of evidence, ya think ?

Growing up, the rich kids I knew were the most likely to steal, rape, and otherwise engage in immoral acts, kind of like our President.

Let me explain , if you can get the right bunch of parts and find the right people with skills you can build just about anything. I know a man who is building an all steel speedster right now he is an old world panel beater every panel is exactly correct, is it going to be a clone yes, he not trying deceive any one . It's when you set out to deceive a buyer to profit it becomes ugly. Who ever built this car is going to be found out it's too small of a community, and if it was for profit there,s a legal term for that fraud , if this issue gets pushed to far someone could be doing a little time, gives plenty of room for personal reflection.

Has anyone read the book BLINK? many "experts" have been fooled on a variety of items

Items in the Smithsonian museum, LA art museum etc. have been found to be fakes.

This car may have even started out in that vein a long time ago, makes you wonder what it'll sell for after it gains this notoriety. My guess is higher than expected...

seriously? no problem at all, pnutz. just looking for some clarification is all. he threw out some info that would suggest that the EC guys have done some shady stuff. if he has something pertinent, i'd be keen to know what that is. otherwise, it just comes off as baseless trash talking. par for the course around here, i suppose.

no horse in the race. i'm familiar with EC and their work. even spent a week in fiji surfing with nick and his brother a few years back. nice enough guy, just wondering if they have a dark reputation that i am unaware of...

In my School the most corrupt kids had Police men for dad's. And yes, experts can be fooled too. Maybe if we're all lucky AOC will run, then we can all sit at home and wait for the freebies to land in our mailboxes!!

Other than the fact that she’s totally unelectable at a national level. But the red hats are gonna try to pitch her as the face of the Dems for the next two years. Fear sells. Donnie proved that.

Not to go into the political gutter, because they are all basically cut from the same cloth. She is the face of the Dems, no pitching required. If you want to be happy these days, limit watching the news, and get out and drive a Porsche!!!
