I may need a parts car dragged back home from the east coast. Is that guy who used to advertise still around? I think his name was Jim with the old F350 and the enclosed trailer... Just curious cause I haven't logged in in awhile and now I don't see his threads. Something happen I don't know about?
Thanks

Thanks I would look for another alternative. I had him haul a car in 2014. He was sketchy at best. Glad to hear he is gone from here. Good riddance.

No, that would be me, the GOOD Jim...LOL I only use Dodges, not Ferds... my mistake ! please accept my humble apologies, and i will take my deserved lashes ! all the confusion about Jack's and Jim's, and the wicked Witch has my mind in a big jumble. [and the cobwebs don't help either. ] please forgive me ! I was going to say get the Rhino to do it.

I asked Jim from Not too Vintage about transporting two NOS quarter panels from Ohio to the East Coast or I would meet him part way. His answer told me he wasn't inierested in making fuel money when he already had a transport to head East a week after I contacted him and he was close to the pick up point for the panels. I guess my money wasn't green enough I asked about transporting an item from here in Phoenix. He wasn’t interested. He can go pound sand as as I’m concerned.

When it works out for both parties, great. When it doesn't, oh well... If you strike a deal and one party doesn't live up to their obligation, not good. But you can't be mad at a guy because (for whatever reason) things didn't work out the way you wanted them to.

His business is transportation/ why refuse work?

I guess my money wasn't green enough I tried to get him to haul for me several times. He thought highly of himself. I thought he was an a-hole!

Initially I turned him on to a couple transports I couldn't do and he actually sent me money, my cut for getting him the jobs! But after that, for some reason he quit talking to me after I wanted to give him other transports, don't know what happened then he complained to Tom about me putting transports on here and had them deleted. I was close to paying Tom's fee to be pinned at the top like he got, but thought about it a bit more then the whole Covid thing happened so I declined. I do not know the exact reason but have a couple of guesses I do not want to post here. I just went out of my way on the last two transports to pick up and deliver parts for people, if they are close enough to one of my routes then I don't mind helping people out for some gas and hotel money! I have a 440 Six Pack engine I just picked up in Arkansas for a guy who needs it in Ohio, he bought it 8 months ago and couldn't find any one to ship it. I told him the next time I will be in Ohio I will bring it along, just makes sense to people...
