Selling my 73 CS in Canada.

[BBOY]

Hi there, I'm selling my 73' auto CS. The border is opening soon I hope. I have some pics here but will take more pics later, more on the under body/ rocket panel. The car received a paint job and some rust repair 20 plus years ago. I've never driven the car in the rain or washed the car with a water hose since my ownership (only hand wash). The car is not perfect but solid with some minor surface rust and bubble. The motor is not original but run very strong with two 32/36 weber(comes with the OEM zenith). I might have the motor installation receipt and mileage. The paint is a bit tired in some areas. I'll include 4 liter of OEM paint and a five speed/flywheel/clutch pedal and also a "clutch slave and clutch master need rebuild". I'm asking 48500.00 obo . I know there is a lot of expert here and I'm open to comment and question

You've apparently owned this coupe for quite a while. Back in 2011 you advertised it here when it was a 72 and not a 73 (it is a 73):

Members back in 2011/12 may recall a series of posts started by Jeff/execmalibu with you shortly after you joined as BBOY. Jeff said you were really yellowbullet, Tommy Ma, Matt Ta, maybe others. You didn't post again until 2018 when you started selling parts again. This is the coupe that you posted when you were yellowbullet. I always thought Jeff was correct but gave you the benefit of the doubt. Your current parts customers might be very happy, I hope that is the case.

good luck, hopefully you are asking canadian dollars. might just be my opinion from looking closely at the pictures, but a lot of money for an automatic with visible rust bubbles and kinda rough in several places and lacking attention to detail. for instance, the lines of the bottom of the doors in relation to the rocker sill trim look a bit off ... a bit of curves.

This fact is discoverable in the feedback section. About 6 months or a year ago I merged the one negative feedback item on YellowBullet with @BBOY. I have personally purchased several parts from BBOY without issue, and referred others his way. Not finding the feedback however.

In my book character counts more than reputation.

 

[BBOY]

First off, I am not Yellowbullet but is a very close friend at that time. Second I thank Chris for digging up the for sale post 9 yrs ago which I don't know anything about the sale.Last, I have to double check the yr 72 or 73. I have a few more pics on the rocket panel, front and rear shock tower plus the underneath floor.

@BBOY,

As you know I have personally provided good reviews for you in the past and pointed folks in your direction. However, the ambiguity around your username and given name only makes things difficult for potential buyers. Whatever happened between you and execmalibu is in the past, and it is important for buyers to review pics or ask for more if needed. You have subsequently helped a lot of folks and your name nonsense just muddies the water.

You said below that you are not any of the the aliases listed below. My own paypal transactions with you indicate otherwise, as the receipts include one of the names in your quote. I’m not sure where it went, but when I merged @BBOY feedback with @yellowbullet, I didn’t do it on a whim. It is important to me that my statements are factual or corrected. I make many mistakes and say incorrect things, and do my best to correct or highlight the error.

You recently said that you are not @yellowbullet but you two were close in 2011 when his car was for sale. This conflicts with your comment below (in 2012), where you said that you met YellowBullet when you delivered parts. I also notice that the license plate in both @yellowbullet and your ad are the same. According to ICBC, one must remove the previous owner’s license plates within 10 days of purchase. Please help to clarify the confusion.

I wish I'm Tommy ma, Stephen Hun or yellowbullet who I met when I deliver some parts two days ago,who own two NSX, alfa duetto, lancia scorpion, e28 m5,(4)CS........ I don't think he'll cheat anyone.

My own post parting '74

Sorry, I want to keep the parts for my next CS

This has gotten pretty messy, hasn't it!!

Maybe @BBOY is like a vast majority of US politicians - their memory for their own (and their friend's) history is readily forgotten when it is convenient to do so.

Thanks to Chris and Mark for opening up the history books.

Either way, you're a little optimistic on your price.

Good luck; I think you may be keeping her for a little while.

 

[floridabmx]

For what it’s worth I feel I should say something about my dealings with BBOY.
I contacted him when he listed a lot of E9 parts for sale. After several exchange of Private messages and emails we agreed on prices for among other things , couple of fenders and when I accepted his offer and asked how to pay him, he backed out saying “ they are not for sale and I decided to hold on to them for a while longer”. Furthermore , before we reached the agreed upon price several things during our discussion didn’t make sense and honestly made me feel uncomfortable. That is when I reached out to Markos and he put my mind at ease saying he had received parts he had purchased from BBOy.

Ultimately we never did any business with each other
I hold no ill feeling toward BBoy . But It seems to me like he has taken this forum for grant it. He seems to forget that this forum makes it so easy for all enthusiasts to connect with each other remotely and exchange information, educate , buy , sell parts, cars and get advice. Some people could also make money doing their business here! Nothing wrong with that. We have active members as far as Australia. Many professional people like Chris Macha , Markos , and other experts spend time away from their business, family and more just to further their interest by helping this community. They don’t make a dime doing it! They do it purely for their love of these beautiful E9s!
It should go without saying that mutual respect takes time to build. One should examine his or her action and/ or reaction when it come to dealing through a forum like this for a long run. Members , rightfully, tend to build an image of the characters of other forum members they interact, or do business with.
I hope BBOy takes my comments in such a way that would help him improve his interactions with others and make better impression!
I certainly wish him all the best !

He will resurface in another four or five years just like the last time, maybe with a new alias.
