Bought a getrag360 transmission from him and it's missing parts. Was told that I would have to use my shifter as he lost it. No biggie bacause I had already started building a custom shifter for my wifes cruiser. Was told that his neighbor owned it and got it running and was driving it around. It showed up with a missing 5th/reverse shift fork, lower mainshaft bearing race along with the 3rd/4th shift fork only .035 thick. I bought it on the 9th of november and have sent him text after text last one being on the 22nd with no reply to it or the one I sent on the 20th. When I noticed the missing parts I sent him a text and he said he had the bearing and would look for some shift forks, even sent a pic of the bearing to me...still no parts and zero communication which is wierd because when I asked him for his paypal addy he was pretty quick to get me that...

This isn't the first time I have had issues with him as I actually bought the dodge 205 that was behind this transmission a while back and was told it was complete. When I picked it up it was missing the 1410 rear yoke that should have been on it. He said that he swears we talked about it missing the yoke but never did.


Not expecting anything to come from this but was more for everyone else. If your going to buy from George then know it will more than likely be missing parts and communication drops right after you send the money...

Where my finger is in the first pic is where a 5th/reverse shift fork should be.
Second pics shows how thin the 3rd/4th fork is.

Yep, but it shouldn't have to come to this. Seems like this is a repeat occurance with this member, just sayin.

Hey Harley, I wasn't trying to avoid you, I'm self employed and have been busy trying to wrap up jobs before the year ended, Holidays did not help any either..I was hoping to come across another Getrag I could get the shift top off of, not gonna work this time. I will pick up the new shift forks tomorrow and get them and the bearing race on their way. I sell alot of stuff on this board so a few bad parts does not surprise me..I have made them all good. I have not tried to sell junk parts to anyone..I will say for future reference most of my parts come from a junk yard, my dad owns one.. I own a paving company but i guess its in my blood. Alot of the local yards call me when they get something in that I would normally buy. Alot of the stuff I do don't need or want but I just can't see it being turned into rebar..
