Personally I never had a problem with Tony. I do understand others did though.

My first I.C. was his V2...ordered it and received it in a normal time frame directly from Charged Air. My second one from Tony I walked up to him in BG in maybe, 2001 or 2002, paid him $1100 and walked away with a V1.

Chris,

I'm with the masses on this one. I bought a few IC's from him back in the day and every one came with some saga attached to it. He made nice parts but he was always a $hitty businessman.

I bought a V-2 at BG in 2000 from Mike Licht, $40/50 cheaper than Tony was selling them for at the same event ???
At Bristol #2(2001)?, Tony was set-up, and I ordered a V-1.
He wrote it down on an order form, I still have the copy.
I wanted coated pipes and a MAT bung.
He said there would be a wait for the coating guy, I said no problem.
He took my credit card #.
I called him after a while, they were working on it.
I saw him at BG the next year, he remembered me and would check on it.
I thought some thing would happen, it never did.
I saw him at BG the next year, one of my buds was buying a Radiator from him, Tony had to run down to Kip's spot and bring it back to Tony's vendor spot. They were gone 20-30 minutes, he asked me to keep an eye on his spot, ok, I'll wait for you. My bud got his radiator, I got to watch over Tony's spot. A few lookers came by.
I never got my V-2 from Tony.
He never charged my credit card .
Maybe he lost that order pad from Bristol .
I found a V-1 locally.
I love it. I'll never look back.
I've thought about selling it, and stepping up, but can I step up?
At BG 2006, MAT creeped to 95 degrees at the end of 10.61/127.85 run.
I think I'll just keep it.

Even Charles Manson could get 2 or 3 people in the world to give him a good reference....

I bet you probably had the one budget roller cam that didnt self destruct as well???

I know you were just relaying your experiences. Just still irks me to see that name come up and someone wanting to send him more money....

He's now "entropy" or some similiar name.

He sells stuff on eBay quite a bit. In one of his descriptions he stated to overlook his feedback as he had built up an inventory now and could ship right away.

I tried him for valve covers and fell into the trap everyone was talking about.

Maybe he can show up at another Buick event, somehow, I see the lining up shaking hands after a ball game in little legue, but in this case, Tony standing up and a line up of guys taking shots at him.

I am one of the few that received my parts, no problems...

I do remember ordering some 3" tubes from him for my ic. I happened to mention to Louie L., after they came in and him saying that he had been waiting for some time for a set. Hard to figure how his thinking ran, I don't think I would risk ordering from him again, unless he was still comming down this way a lot.
