Note the date/time stamp on the photo is three years old.
He either is bogus listing parts he doesn't have in order to scam some money - after all he only has a "4" rating on this ebay name - there's nothing to lose. Or he had some parts at a buddy's house that the cops didn't find.
He got busted with a garage full of stolen WRX parts, a stolen 951 cut into pieces, and a stolen 355 challenge car. He's back to selling WRX and 951 parts. Hmmm.

Go ahead and buy them then, if you are comfortable with that. But then, how many members of this community would willingly support him after used this forum (and others) to enable his repeated theft.

There was a scammer spotted in the 928-forums a while back selling stuff that didn't exist. What the 928-crowd did was to put false bids on the items in the millions of dollars.. Maybe that would be a thing to do?
I don't have an e-bay account otherwise I'd go crazy bidding on these things..

Hi Turby, I can see you managed to join the forum under another name.

Wrong. It all depends on the amperage of the Plasma. I've seen a plasma cut through 1/2" stock with ease. I wouldn't call that sheet metal.

He's a freakin thief, had the ***** to post on the Rolex's thread and is walking the streets. And we are harsh!!
The guy cut up a beautiful 951. That means there's one less in the world and it wasn't his to hack up.
I think we are being too easy on him....
