WTB: 2 x Stromberg OF Carbs

Post by TorontoMD » Tue Jul 06, 2021 10:14 am

Hey everyone. Had to take break from my project
For a while due to COVID-related work.
Im in line to have my engine rebuilt this fall and need carbs for my project.

Looking for two visual matching Stromberg OF carbs. Ready to run only as not looking for a project carb.

Thanks for ignoring my emails stating I’d take it after you sent me pics, Sparktag. Shitty business practice

Replied to you, Brad

Replied to Gene.

Anyone else toying with selling theirs?

I’m also open to hearing if anyone has spare parts laying around or incomplete carbs.

Not looking for show polished ones

Too bad I sold the Stromberg OF that you committed to buy last August but forgot to pay for. I held it for almost two months and after exchanging several emails and waiting for "the check is in the mail" to arrive I eventually sold it to a fellow from California that was patiently waiting as well. Talk about "shitty business practice"...........really.

Sorry Bruce. Just to clarify, you’re the one I was waiting on a reply from. Never received a response from you.

Not quite....there is a paper trail of emails regarding checks being sent or going to be sent, and to this day (a year later) I have not received the check. As well, the emails from you surprisingly just stopped with no further questioning about the situation. A gentleman from California waited patiently for 7 weeks for this to be resolved and is apparently quite happy with your "decision" and his new OF. Anyway, this amazing Forum and Classified section is not the place to be airing dirty laundry. I personally have bought and sold many items on this site and with the exception of your "dealings" have never ever had a problem as all the rest have been straight up, honest, and fair.
