Default Beware - potential Ebay Scam 1974TA

Bea very careful of this e-bay ad
https://www.ebay.com/itm/254614667313

Pictures are from Fast Lane Cars,
https://www.fastlanecars.com/vehicle...-am-super-duty

That alone isn't a big deal as the new owner could have decided to re-sell ad use the old pics, but the person on e-bay hasn't retuned any of my inquiries and the VIN is listed as 033 on ebay and 038 on fast lane.

Yep, it does look suspect as the listing shows the car in Bellingham, WA and Fast Lane is located in Missouri, plus the fact that the seller hasn't returned your calls. On the other hand maybe he bought the car from Fast Lane (that website says SOLD) with the intent of flipping it, typo on the VIN, and just doesn't return calls & letting the bid process play out. Several years ago I listed an 89 TA and got numerous phone calls from people who had absolutely no interest in purchasing. Also
states a "long time member" whatever legitimacy that may add.

Looks like the ad is pulled.
