Default I got in too deep!!!!

Here's my problem. i have a factory rebuilt X51 motor, and no longer have a car to put it into.

So if anyone is interested, I have to get rid of it.
It's a 3.6 05 X-51 motor. Part # was 996-100-955-CX when I got it, I'm not sure if that's still the number. it cost well over $9500.00

Make me a respectable offer, and it's yours!

With all due respect, may I suggest you first become a respectable paying member before you post an ad asking for respectable offers? You are breaking forum rules.

Also, if you want people to bid for your engine, I suggest you try eBay instead. I hate it when people try to start bidding wars between Rennlist members -- if you're selling something on Rennlist, name your price and first come first serve.

Forum rules state that you must be a member and must post a price, your avatar shows "user" and you did not state a price at first. It was a reminder to the forum rules, and honestly, much more polite than others on this board.

That said, you resolved both, best of luck with the sale, sounds like a good deal.

Look! It's Tim's stand in. Thanks for catching this one. And it was very polite, as well! lol.

Also, good luck with the sale.

Yup - programmatore was actually pretty nice about it. I had already reported you to the admins to delete your post.

It's still early and to be honest I couldn't be bothered wasting words that would invariably have chewed you out for trying to sell something without being a member.

While you membership is being validated, so I do not need to get on to you about the rules of FS items, where are you located, when was the engine rebuilt, do you have the original documentation of the engine, pictures, etc.?

I do apologize for my screw up. I guess I really should have checked the ol "policies and proceedures" manual! (just kidding). The motor was purchased from PCNA in july of 2006 It has never been installed, and is currently on an engine stand in my shop. I'll get pictures on monday if you like.

I wasn't sure if he was referring to me or you, so I'd prefer to think that it was you.

Here's a link to the thread where you can ask for assistance with getting your membership corrected so that it shows-up on this thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...ferrerid=54027

Tempting. Verry tempting, particularly given the dollar exchange rate today.
