Very sorry to read of your troubles. Telling the truth you have no need to be sorry about. We all shall be judge upon our actions went we leave this world, place this in God's hands and you'll feel better.

Surely with a track record like his he is known to the local police. I would contact thr police and seek guidance ad to whether they will entertain criminal charges.

Interesting how a thread that is almost a year and a half old is reborn.

Some people have problems in their life, others make problems of their life.

I don't think we should 'dump it' when new data and information becomes available. This was a subject posted some time ago, but when I saw that his property is being auctioned off, I felt it would be important information for the person who posted it. So blame me. But I felt it was new information, that might help the person who started the thread.

This man has literally hundreds of thousands of parts, many NOS. His business could be very successful. This is a company his father started, Russ is now in his late 60's. You cannot fathom the collection he has. Everything is for sale, at 4-5 times the value. I have had very nice conversations with him. I have also had him scream at me. You never know.

no one is putting any blame on you, but to keep hashing this out goes no place, this was posted over a year ago. unless bill has something to say why not just let it go. only my view. lets get back to our old fords.

Well not letting this subject die does help new people to the Model A and on the forum to stay away from a deadbeat like this.

So being new to the A, Thank You Bill!

Thanks Joes31 for coming to my defense. If you read the thread, I lost $1,000 to this man. A friend lost $5,000. He still never paid the man who posted.
So in all due respect, if this post keeps one person from going there it's worth it.
I would love to get back to our Fords, and protecting our Fords from him, we will keep our Fords.

Well it looks like a year ago somebody got it all when the property and contents were sold at auction.

Bill: By all means, thanks for alerting us. Consider this worm is what he is and write it off as a bad investment. Remember, "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame one me. Have a better day, and vent when you need too...

Some of us wear our reputations like a cheap suit.

And some don't care how they're dressed - which is the worst part.

Thanks for the warning Bill. I missed it when it was originally posted. Need to keep everyone up to date. I can't figure out the people that want this dropped. No one is forcing them to open this post or to read it. Their problem. Don/WI

I personally don't agree with Fred. It is a very useful post that serves a purpose. I think there should be a section that is designated to list the dead beats that members have encountered ! Thanks for the post Bill, I wish there were more Barners like you !
