Oh and he bought it for $1500 from the dealer after i talked him down $1000 for the car so if anyone paid anything over $1500 you got screwed. Should have asked me and i would have told you exactly what was wrong with it.

Sweet!
So you get a cut of the profit if it sells on fleebay?

I didn't even know he sold it. Just found out about the ebay add today. Oh and durring the 944 saga i did two head gasket jobs on BMWs they bought and sold, belts on a really old bmw that i dont know the year honestly as well as diagnosed problems on a old Maserati they bought and a old LT1 vette. all never asking for anything but beer.

I talked to them about everything. after a year of the car sitting on my property and them not wanting to spend the money on the right parts to fix it I asked them to remove it. The truck came and picked it up and I haven't seen it since or heard from them. Its not my car, why should I have any reason to call them to find out what happened to it?

This guy is smearing you all over ebay. Thats not good. All I'm going to say.

OMG

You have no reason but they were laying it on pretty thick and the stories differ alot. There has to be a failure to communicate

If you are indeed telling the truth, then stay out of this type of business. That ebay add, really gives a bad impression about you. Since your grandfather worked hard to start the gas business, you don't want to be the one giving the company a bad name since your last name is the same as the gas company and your picture is all over. Good luck.

Without knowing first hand what actually happened, but listening to VooDoo's story and then reading the eBay listing, and folding in my own experiences from both friends (who run shops) and my dad (former mechanic/writer/shop foreman) I'm inclined to give VooDoo more credit than the eBay seller.

Sounds like the typical guy who bought a "cheap Porsche", had NO idea what he was getting in to, and then assumed that VooDoo was trying to "screw him" with inflated prices on parts.

Stories like this are what make me EXTREMELY hesitant to offer physical help to people I meet in person with their car problems. It only takes one idiot to really screw up your reputation.

Absolutetly. That's why I left the comment above.

"The car has no ignition and I was using a screw driver to start it...I really loved this car and was hoping to get it back to mint condition with all bells and whistles working."

I think of an ignition lock as a 'whistle' too. Just thought that was funny.
