Update on the Hotchkiss M-201, I pulled this one down. I found the same rig and all the pictures on a UK FB post.

I was just talking to someone over email about the importance of the Photos and how they are invaluable to use for search to do basic cross references.

The story about the BAT rig that was posted as an MB, and it being an 1960 Hotchkiss, then this being a 1960 Hotchkiss, it was all too fishy for me at this time.

So doing some more digging I found the same email tied to a similar approach where the user grabbed a BAT photo of a high end Chevy 427 that sold in March, then reposted it on a site racetrade in Aug for like half, it sold on BAT for $50k reposted for $22k.

So this was almost the same exact approach on this ad.

I do try to vet the emails and users as best possible prior to posting, but this one got through and that sucks, but as soon as I figured it out it came down.

I have notified the other site of the suspected scam for the other race engine as well.

Thanks, Tim
