Anybody wondering what ever happen to Rich Barnes?
You guys remember a few years ago how I helped someone from Canada get his rightful Bronco from Rich? The Bronco with the big ol supercharger sticking out the hood and all? Well here's a story from Hot Rod about some of his latest dealings. Reading the story he took a classic Bronco to CA and came home with something pretty cool. http://www.hotrod.com/cars/featured/110 ... gger-fish/

I was hoping he'd gone to prison for tax evasion.

Re: Anybody wondering what ever happen to Rich Barnes?
Thats a shame that a chump like that got that kinda deal. Just the gt350 alone for that price. That guy wont do crap to it and screw someone else out of a ton of money.

Didn't he have some other rather shady dealings on Ebay I seem to remember reading some very negative feedback on him.

Re: Anybody wondering what ever happen to Rich Barnes?
There are a few of those types in the Bronco world too. The types that will pull up to the home of a 70+ couple and offer to buy that old rusty pile of crap for 500 because it would cost them that to have it hauled off to scrap.

Re: Anybody wondering what ever happen to Rich Barnes?
His version of the story sounds super douchtastic. I'd be curious to know how much scummier the reality is.
