carb
Have i ever said he was wrong or right? I don't care if you are black or white, don't care who you vote for. But there is one thing for sure, the price of the carb didn't warrant me going across the u,s after it, but you sure are getting me to that point with you. You seem to be one of these people that get's their kicks from keeping things stirred up and is afraid to show themselves for who they really are, well on second thought you have showed whom you are, TO THE REST OF YOU GUY'S ON HERE, IGNORE THIS PEST AND IT MIGHT GO AWAY!

Well I see that any hopes of any reasoning you might have has turned to stupidity so I guess I will stop "poking at the bears". I do have to say I got some enjoyment out of conversing with you guys. I do honestly feel that jrlj had every right to keep the carb you offered him to make up for your mistakes. Just my opinion. I will check back every now and then to see if you want to chat about it some more.

CARB
I feel great about myself, drag racing is starting up, going racing, lovely wife, nice home, nice garage, fast car, what else is there. I only made one mistake. And that is trying to deal with Jim.

JR should have realized that there was a communication mistake, been appreciative of your offer and then met that generosity by returning the carb. deal done, friends made and everyone happy.
When he kept the carb and said he did it because you told him that was the deal? It became all about the money.
But then these days it is all about the money right? Not about doing whats right, making friends and building relationships, even meeting trading partners.
Mopar, what that carb deal/final offer bought you is the admiration and respect of many on this board.
JR, returning it would buy you the same.
My opinion as always,
Later
it is what is stated in the above quoted post that is the real issue...at least for me.
