I went internet-searching for various parts for this winter's project car. I found a guy, calls himself "58to64chevpontiac", says he's in MB, says he has what I need. Unfortunately, hasn't said much since. I am asking if anyone here can recommend this guy, from first-hand experience, or am I fishing in a mirage.

I'm in Manitoba. Can you tell me where he calls himself 58to64chevpontiac? I have a feeling I've tried to deal with him in the past....
Pontiacanada and 4speed, yeah, I think you both got the correct ...time-waster.
I am the intermediary. I have 4.4% of the average adult's internet skills, Brother has 4%, Father has 0%. So I got elected. But the first connection I get is THAT guy. Thanks for your feedback. Will post Wish List in a '64 forum (thread?). It's a Parisienne Custom Sport 2dr convertible, but it was quite a bit beyond where a sane mortal would consider restoring from.

Please use that extra .4% to post some pics. If I can do it (I'm on about 2%) I'm sure you can.

maybe someone can help me out - his is related to the original query;
There is a Kijiji user who appears to be in Winnipeg; He has a listing for some odds and ends Firebird parts; three horn buttons, one horn contact, and one Hurts (three speed) T-handle; He doesn't have a price - it just says "please contact", and to his credit he DID reply to my message, but he is not interested in shipping.
His user name is "Groover"
Does anyone know him?
If his asking price is reasonable, I'd love to buy that stuff - might anyone here be willing to tlak to him for me?
I have family in Winnipeg, including my dad and step-mom, but to keep a long story short, I cannot ask him to intervene for me, and I am not close enough with any cousins ect to ask the same.

ugg, I just messaged the guy again, because I saw some other good stuff he had... but what's with people not posting prices!?
I mean, they know what they want - why be so lazy?

EDIT: HERE is the link to the ad in question.
Maybe I should make a new thread?
