    That's what I wondered, as the wording was exactly the same as the ad last year. But for some reason I thought that PJGrady UK bought it.

    Either way, thought it odd that the "seller" wasn't trying to sell it on any of teh D forums.

    Exclamation This is a scam!

    BEWARE! I just saw Rob Grady and he has that exact engine crated up in his shop in Long Island. He bought it several years back and said this scam happened a year or two back as well. He was very surprised when I showed him the Craigslist ad. I hope nobody bit the bait yet... Good news is that Rob is thinking about selling it himself. If anyone is interested, I would contact Rob.

    Might be a good idea for everyone to flag the ad so nobody falls prey to it.

    How many of those engines are out there?
    I've seen this engine at Delorean Europe in the Netherlands myself.

    So where is it now? Does Rob own it? Does Josh?

    I haven't kept up on some of the history of our cars and things. Is the history described in the ad accurate? More specifically, had this engine been installed and operated in Ed's car?
