strdmn aka Wally Kimberlin in Akron Ohio is a liar and scam
ad # 1885111 is the truck I traded for and Just got done deleting my trade ads because I didnt want to the next guy being lied too as well....
He drove from Akron Ohio with his truck and I didnt look it over the best because I didnt think someone would drive that far and lie about what they had.
I didnt have my motor guy here because Wally talked about how honest he was and far he was traveling and would never scam someone. (Shame on me I know)
Well I take the truck to my engine guy to have him go through everything to see what is exactly is in the engine and as soon as we pop the hood and he looks at the engine he told me someone got me. And pointed to the freeze plugs and the balancer and told me I had a 350 and not a 406. We pulled the tall valve covers looked at the back of the block to find it is a 3970010 block.....
I confronted Wally and his response was "as i told you in the begginning i didn't build the truck ,that is what was told to me. i never checked the truck because i had no need to it ran fine for a mild 406 so i had no reason to dought what the man told me.who knows the story might have started there in Va. as the truck came from just north of you."
Yes he did tell me he traded for the truck and he also made it clear that he went over the truck and it was a well built truck with a fresh 406. He also told me how many engines he had built (over 40) and how nice this one was.
If he built as many as he said he would have looked at the motor just as my engine builder did and know what it was....
He is a liar and a scammer. Watch your dealings with him
