|
I have bought parts from Raul for many years...One of the most "stand up" guys in the used parts business. Last time I was in contact with him he said he had some parts that I had asked him to look for and he had located them. Sent him back an email and tried to PM him.....nothing. Had a fellow Samba member who lives in Cali too send him an Email....nothing. I know he travels for work and has done a couple year disappearing act before. Hope that he's ok...He really helped me out when I needed it. Just wondering if anyone has had any contact with him? |

Thanks for the correction. I used to be a nice guy, then I ruined it by exposing myself to the public. |

I have not heard from him in some time and I wrote him a few weeks ago asking him to contact you. Raul is VW76Westy. Last Visited: April 18, 2016 _________________ “Most people don’t know what they’re doing, and a lot of them are really good at it.” - George Carlin |

hello guys, Raul yellow westy is the nice guy, im the other Raul. i did see the ad, maybe they did do them, dont know? ive been working on Chevys and making more money on fixing cars for family and freinds, rather than buying my own, dumping all my money, then hoping to sell it. i do have a 68 project bus, but its on the back burner. as for the dashes, i have the material, have some cores, but i get discouraged when having to strip the originals, its a messy tiring chore. so i work on cars. i doubt econo made them as thats my pic in the ad. LOl. any way, i got fresh material, supplies, just need time to make some. _________________ once you realize im not impressed we will get along just fine |
