    Hi all

    There is a guy at Thesamba, that has a lot of early 911 for sale. John Snell from Wyoming
    Does anybody know him?
    He has a few 911, that I could have interest in, but its far away from Denmark, so I might have to ask if there is one of you guys, that live in the near of John Snell

    try a search, sheridan wyoming has been featured in a lot of threads....a lot of cars have gone in there, very few have come out.

    my suggestion is to buy a car that has been owned by an enthusiast, a member of this site....spend some time searching here, there is a ton of information.

    AND, if you are really interested in these cars, become a member.

    good luck.

    Hey, I actually met someone @ EASY this month that managed to BUY a car from Sheridan WY. Said that he made a deal over the phone and drove out with a trailer to pick up the car. Car was billed as matching numbers, but the buyer was muy skeptical given the jumble of parts and engines in the warehouse. I was amazed to hear this after following the EarlyS and PP threads over the years.

    Apparently it is possible to buy a car from him. Go figure

    Here's a typical car:

    http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifie...php?id=1260501

    It's missing so many parts that it's scary.
    Horrid pics.
    I'd be so scared of trying to buy a car from this guy that it would take all the fun out of the process.

    As others have said....run, Forest, run.

    ps.... anyone who won't put a price in their ad is distrustful to me. That's just me....

    I think he posts a car for sale out of loneliness, you know stuck out in the middle of nowhere with all these parts and cars with nobody to talk to. Post an ad get a lot of action going stir up some conversation then disappear for a while. Then start the process over again!!
