It is on here for the wrong year of a street scene grille. I could have sworn I have seen this truck on here before by someone named Nick I think?

Here is the link to the auction they are using it for:

I really dislike it when people can't even get an image of their own eff-ing product, and at least match it to the right eff-ing year truck, Ebay is full of crap sellers.

once you put a picture on the net without something on it that says "copywrited to _____" it is fair game...

this is the last email i sent them:

"If you would like to keep debating this, I will contact US Speed and street scene and make sure they know you are practicing bad business techniques. This truck is not a 93-97 truck, this is not a 93-97 grille... You are using MY truck without MY authorization and I NEVER submitted this picture to street scene. How would you like it if i stole your business name and used it for my benefit? DIDNT THINK SO! Get rid of the picture or I will."
