I guy on these forums contacted me as I was looking for a bonnet for a stagea said he one but was interstate.

I sorted everything out with him price and postage. Then direct deposited the money and now the guy has vanished. Kept saying he was busy he will get to it. Now wont answer my calls won't respond to msgs. Added him on Facebook contacted him that way. Then he deleted me.

The guy on here's name is TANGENTS.

I have his full name and address but don't think it's right. To disclose that just yet.

All I want is the bonnet or my cash back.

Administrators please pull this down if further action is needed I am happy to go to the appropriate people but I will let this stand another couple of weeks. out of benefit of the doubt. Cheers for everyone's offers. Just thought people should know.

Internet forums contain the full spectrum of people; it's inevitable that bad things will happen, and it's naive to think that everyone is trustworthy.

Given this was resolved with a successful outcome; perhaps it would be an idea to edit the title of this thread, or even lock it; so that it doesn't keep arriving at the top of the page with a negative spin on Tangents trustworthiness.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
