    i see there are 4 bids so someone is trying to buy two grille emblems for less than 20 bucks. the ones bidding probably know what they are. this way they can get them cheap and resale for more. jmo...frank...

    He's probably thinking about the 69 Mach 1 that had mustang emblems similar to those on the sail panels.

    He bought 12000 parts? I wonder if he is the guy who won the ebay auction a while back for the warehouse full of Ford parts that were locked away in an old Ford dealership?

    I'm not 100% positive, but I thought they were up in the Boston area.

    Thanks Everyone!

    Looks like it worked! Maybe in the future, if somebody is trying to help him out he won't be a jerk about it again. The original email I sent to him was friendly, not smart assed at all, and he basically wrote me back saying I was only guessing at what the part was and I didn't know what I was talking about. Really burned me up.
    Thanks to all the emailers. [​IMG]
