I am just passing this message along from Mantapart
I have all our cars and a lot of parts on eBay now and am going to start selling off everything this Summer.. I am also going to sell off the business by selling the intellectual & business sources/suppliers etc. to 10 buyers. IT will be listed on the site soon, going to offer 10 people all the info and access to everything for a fee. Anyone who pays will have equal access and the info will be sold at one time to all of them so no advantage to any buyers. Any patterns, molds, fixtures etc. will then be available to those people also first choice. IF I dont get enough buyers its still available to one buyer, but it would be a pretty stiff amount, so figure regional people in the big market areas would benefit more from it this way.

... if you ever GET the parts, that is... Mantapart is still Mantapart... just because you win the auction and pay for it, doesn't mean squat.

seems legit to me?

Want but not for 4k+. I'm sure all the parts/shell are worth it but for that price I'll go Spec Miata.

I also never had a problem getting parts from him either.

to further my thoughts...
i got four jet titanium rods that were cut down to fit on an LD9 crank from tim (not even through ebay, just email) awhile back, one rod had titaium bolts making it about 50 grams lighter then the other three which had steel bolts which in turn made the set useless to me as far as balance goes.
i got ahold of tim and explained the situation. he said he would find me a rod with the correct bolts. well, awhile went by and we kept in contact etc and he finally found me a rod. a friend wanted a set for himself so i made that deal with tim as well and he sent me three rods that matched the one off-one i had in the first set and the fourth one was matching to my first set. so now i have two full weighted matching sets here.
it was an ordeal but ultimately tim came through and the deal was fine, he worked the problem and provided me with my parts. thats all any place is supposed to do. i give them an A.

i only have the one set, a buddy of mine locally bought the other. but.. with any luck i'll end up with them anyway
both sets were modded to fit on an LD9 crank. id actually like a third set but un-modded eventually...
