You guys are out of luck, because I'm buying all of these as soon as my money from Mrs. Nkese Nbutobo comes from Nigeria. When I get it, I really won't need all the money I won in the Dutch lottery.

Does the engine looks familiar?

Well is an actual engine being sold by LA Porsche dismantlers.

I have sent ebay attempted frauds numerous times and they are at best extremely slow to act if at all. The LA Porsche photos have been used before-- I emailed Todd at LA and he did get action quickly! try letting him know that his photos are being abused.

Hey!!! This would be perfect for that ebay car that only needed you to "drop in a turbo motor" to have the real deal! And just in time for Christmas!

We could even have a contest, to see who can build the best 300MPH, 800HP virtual Porsche, using only ebay scammer parts...I'll volunteer to pay for the whole thing, as soon as my money from Nigeria comes. It is due any day now. I asked them to send it Western Union--everyone says that is the best and safest way.

That is because he already sold it -- read below the reply I got -- LOL!



Hi,
Thank you for your email.
I have sold the one listed on ebay but I have more available for the immediate sale.
You will get the complete swap with everything you need to install it to your car.The swap is fully tested and is in excellent condition.All the papers are included, the milage is 4000 miles,the year is 1997 .The tranny is LSD.Wiring harness,ECU,cables,axels,hoses, mounts etc are included.
Actually I have 2 more same swaps available for the immediate sale so you do not have to bid on ebay, you can just buy it immediatelly from me.I will accept 3400 USD total including shipping for the motor.Two other engines are located in Europe and will be shipped to the customers from there.The story is that I have opened a store in Ukraine nearly a year ago and wanted to make some money.But it was not a good idea and I have big troubles with that store right now.So I am closing it and have to pay some debts and fees to the government.That is why I need each dollar I have to send it to my partner in Ukraine so he can pay for everything.So you can make payment to my partner i9n Europe dirrectly and the shipping will be iniciated either from Ukraine or from the US.In case you buy the motor from Ukraine , my partner will prepare and ship you the engine within a day.Anyway I planed to ship all the motors back to the US and my partner have already prepared everything for the delivery and moved the motors to the shipping company's store.Now the only thing the shipper needs to start the delivery is buyer's shipping info. The shipping will take 5-6 days so it is no longer than the shipping between states in the US.
The swaps from Europe are ABSOLUTELLY THE SAME, WITH SAME SPECS, and their milage is 8500 and 11000 miles.
And the most pleasant thing for the buyer is a discount which I offer to every customer who buy the motor from my European store and make payment dirrectly to my partner.In this case I will accept 2700 USD total including shipping for the swap.It is really a good price for this engine so do not loose such a nice opportunity.

Please email me asap if you are interested so I can reserve one swap for you.

Thank you,
Johnathan

Do you think I can stick another turbo motor into the front trunk area of Rufus? That sounds like a really cheap and easy way to improve the performance. Chris... go ahead and order a 2nd engine for me.

He didn't sell it on ebay then...otherwise it would have shown up as a completed auction. This one was delisted. I bet he didn't sell it...looks like ebay pulled the auction down and he is trying to rope someone else in..."just Western Union me the money....." blah, blah...

Looks almost exactly the same as what he sent me but with a few slight differences. I say buy all three! Just tell him you'll give him your winning lottery ticket for $50,000 that you can't cash because you are not a citizen! You could even offer to let him keep the cash difference for all his troubles!
