I just hit the Buy-It-Now button and found the dreaded red "don't sell to overseas" message. It then dawned on me that I've dealt with this tosser before and he's a whole world of wank. Shame.

. Can any American forum members help me out by buying this for me? My usual guy is away in Europe. I'll PayPal you the $500 +75shipping+some extra for the trouble straight away. I only need the motor shipped to Long Beach CA.

The plan

Bugger >:(...........SOLD :'(.
I'd been frantically contacting a number of American friends and finally arranged for McCook to purchase the motor for me.
We were right in the middle of the money transfer when the bloody thing came up as SOLD. I really wanted that motor for either my Sprite or Metisse projects....most probably the Sprite for pre 65,  but it's all for nothing now........
Thanks anyway to McCook, Flying DG and the gorgeous Miss Laurie for offering to help out on the USA side.

Yeah well that would be good, but I reckon my new FREE bike is just the ducks nuts

Hallelujah......I've been depressed all day after thinking I'd missed out on the motor. When I didn't hear back I went into plans A B &C but there it was...plan A worked all along! No email yet mate, if you used the email address on my profile it's no longer in operation. I'll PM you my regular email address.
