Hello Everyone!

I'm glad someone brought this to my attention, I've written this person and hopefully this is taken care of.

I hate when people steal my work, I hate it even more when they make money on it, no telling how many of these sell to non evilbay customers if they have another outlet, copyright thieves suck!

Tom

Your stuff is good, Tom. Let me know if you will ever make it to Pensacola. Late July would be great.

This is what the seller emailed me today:

"BONJOUR. Me dire la photo en cause et je vais faire pour retirer de mes annonces. Encore désolé. Léa

--- En date de : Jeu 28.6.12, "

Google Translation: HELLO. Tell me the photo in question and I will do to remove my ads. sorry again

Hello Raid!

Yes, I got the SAME email, I will watch there and see if the badge comes back, if it does then I'll have ebay shut down their account.

Speaking of Pensacola, I have original 1957 Pensacola Florida license plates on my 1957 Beetle (very rare "T" CODE *under 2,000 lbs) rated plates.

I might get up there sometime with my Beetle, if I do I'll let you know

Thanks for all you have done concerning the copyright infringement.

Tom

Yes Sir I do, it's a May 1957 Oval Window, European Spec/ with German Cloth Interior *Dark Blue with little White Polka-Dots and Semaphore Turn Signals* ~ The car also had ALL the US DOT parts added so it could be Exported to the States, the first owner was a chemical scientist with the US Navy in Germany etc etc.

You can see and read the story of my car here:
