E Bay Scam?
Check out item # 4619865877. Seller states car is a 1973 model that has won numerous awards and been in car magazines. Car is NOT a 1973 corvette--car in photo has a front chrome bumper. Plus look at that engine compartment--car mags and awards?--hmmm.

I sent an email to the seller "Rushlord" politely pointing out to him the corvette in the listing was not a 1973. He replied back with a very abusive profane message telling me to leave his listing alone--and that all 1973's did have chrome front bumpers! I then sent a message to e bay alerting them of the scam and told them to read his email to me.
