he's a lot of subaru and 951 parts for sale lately, but no actual buyers. The same parts he was selling from stolen vehicles.

Ask the seller a question: "Hey, are these the parts from the 951s and WRX's you were arrested for stealing?"

He was arrested for stealing several cars, including the 951 of a member here.

Also, in case you heard about the Ferrari 355 Challenge car that was stolen a while back? yeah. Him.

This is unreal, why haven't all these parts been confiscated? How the hell is he allowed to sell parts that are known to be stolen?

Someone who knows more about what happened should alert ebay with a copy of that news clip before someone loses their wallet over stolen parts.

If you go to Daniel's link and play the video on the right side they say the red 951 is a "911". Also in the video you are able to catch a climpse of a plasma cutter very similar to the one turby is selling right now.
