Let me put this out here as straight forward as I can. I pull no punches when it comes to parts and cars in general. .
I have dealt with Bob several times. I have sent many Trans Am people Bob's way, because I knew he would treat each person right.
I have bought parts from Bob, that others would have have tried to sell for 100's of dollars more. I got to know Bob personally and spent the better part of 6-7 hours with Bob finding the parts "I" wanted. Get it? Parts "I Wanted"--- not just what was in front of us. We traveled around---- back and forth until I had my truck loaded with what "I Wanted". This was in the fall of 2010.
Bob's title of 'trans am reaper' is just that----a title. Not the person.
Today---- I received a part from Bob. A part I have been wanting for some time now. I took Bob's word on the part (without even seeing a photo). I didn't need a photo. To me---Bob's word is gold (Y88 GOLD).
Bob----If you are reading this-----Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This peice is top shelf quality and no games.
Thank You So Much Brother.

Wow, I thought that was going to end badly for some reason. Good to know, I just contacted him to find me a carb I've been looking for.
The Spice must flow....
-
I've come to know him on Feebay and he always sent my top notch quality parts..
He will definitely bend over backwards to help a fellow TA member...
-
I have talked with Bob over the phone the other day. Certainly seems to be a knowledgeable person in the TA field. Seems to be a great person to deal with over the phone.
As of yet I have not bought parts from him. He is still trying to locate what I need. If & when he comes through I will be driving to Chicago from WV for the parts. That is how much faith I have in his word.
I will add to this post once I have parts in hand.

I also bought some NOS flares from him a little while back. I got a good price, the parts were packed well and shipped quickly. I would surely buy from him again.
-
Only bought pillar panels from him (I think they were used...couldn't even tell). Packed up superb, and shipped quick at a good price. Will get more when I can.
-
Sent the Reaper a little cash - 2 days later I have a very good condition chrome bezel installed on my Bird, with the black trim rings- for under a hunny- can only offer praise and will go Reaper for all my parts first

Wish he had a nice 4 speed console!!!!
-
Yep. Black with switch. Those things used to be everywhere. Sort of dried up overnight.
I bought an OER a few weeks ago. I guess its not bad but the grain appears to be different to me. Oh well! If u see something give me a shout.
-
hey Bobby Thanks! I have a few tattered consoles that I can rob the metal mounting brackets out of. But thanks anyway.
-
Thanks Bobby!
great deal on the seat tracks and cowl, only wanted the corners and he shipped me the whole thing, no extra shipping charge,
will keep you in mind for more stuff we need.
-
I put the signal up in the sky, and the trans am reaper answered the call for help.....

Taking the time to find a small part I needed (jack retainer bracket & nut) and getting it to me quickly so I can complete another check on the list of things to finish on my Trans Am. That's service!
Thanks Bobby - I look forward to doing more business with you again.
Don't fear the reaper people - call him!
-
Great part at a great price. Quick shipping and well packed.This is my second time buying a part from bobby and I have no complaints
Thanks again Bobby
-
Wow, great stuff, fast shipping, great packaging... all I have to say.....
-
Part came in today.....Thanks Bobby A+++++ Good Man :)
Martin
-
Nice parts Bobby. Cant beat the price! Thanks alot. Fast shipping.
-
I can't say enough about Bobby K! He sent me some rear window trim and it showed up in one piece and it was great looking trim!!!! I also just called him cause Oreilly's ordered me the wrong power steering pump. My pully wouldn't fit what they ordered for me. Mine has the outside thread for the pully and a notch in the pulley. The one they sent me needs a bolt to go down the middle to hold the pulley on. And of course it will take days to re-order the correct pump. Tried Autozone and Advanced same story nothing in their warehouse. My car is dead in the water right now. I called Bobby, he is overnighting me everything I need. He's a lifesaver!!!!
-
The reaper strikes again. Ordered some small parts from Bobby. Emblems, seatbealt guides, and some other thing. All came fast and well packed. All was just like he said. If he said it was "sweet" you got a sweet looking part. Nice to be able to keep the T/A as close to original as I can. Thanks to guys like him it is possible. "Keep Your GM All GM" not china plastic junk. Thanks BK
-
traded parts with bobby k and everything went smooth and a sweet deal. Thanks bk
-
the reaper was the only one to reply to my thread and get me the part i needed to get my ta back on the road. he was concerned with what caused my original part to go bad so he did me a major solid.
here is what i ordered and paid for

here is what he sent me so i can replace everything on that side to fix the problem, no extra charge, just sent it all
(http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af80/dgabel7/1979%20Nocturne%20Blue%20TA/g023.jpg)
i am shocked and moved by your concern for what caused my problem to begin with, so much that you would send me all these parts and only charge me for what we originally agreed to in picture one. i owe you big time and will look your way first when in need. thanks sir!!!
-
That's awesome. Truly nice.
What kind of motor do you have? Did it come with screw-in studs from the factory?
-
All Pontiac V8s after 1967 had screw in studs from the factory if I'm not mistaken.
-
Nope, they were not screw studs, they were pressed in.
-
not sure what you are referring to but stock pieces in this pic and is what i used for my 301 4spd 79ta.
installed all of it today and running great, reaper is the man!!!
-
Just had to throw it out there. I've been buying used parts from Bobby and have nothing but positive results. I'm in California and he's in Illinois but seems like he's down the street. Parts are shipped promptly and arrive and as described by Bobby.
Looking forward to continued business with the Reaper. Jeff
-
Just got a cigerette lighter in the mail yesterday from Bobby, all I can say is holy crap. My jaw dropped, he said dang near NOS and he was not kidding the element is used but There is no wear marks on it and not even a faded spot in the paint. No chips, no cracks, no nothing. Bobby is truly a man of his word and I will be dealing with him for parts in the future.

Who would've really thought that after all this time we'd still be posting here about "Ol Reaper" man. Back before the explosion Bobby and I were in discussion about a PDL Switch and some Solenoids. Once the fallout settled reaper was nowhere to be found. I had kind of written off the parts thinking that was the end of that!
Well lemme tell ya was I wrong. After a few days in SC I returned home to find a box on my desk. FROM BOBBY! It was my switch. There was a business card and some peanuts...thats it. No bill. Nothing else. After some probing found a mole ( or Turd...lol) had given up my info so Bobby could get my parts to me. I'm thrilled with the parts. They look super nice and will be going in my car asap. If anyone sees/talks to Bobby tell him I know what I owe him and the check will be in the mail.
Don't fear the Reaper! Need more cowbell!
-
Should be seeing him tomorrow night. Supposed to meet him, turd and 2ndchildhood after work.
I got a fever.......

-
I found him over on Firebird Nation. He seems to be alive and well
-
Guess he's not such a bad guy after all!
-
Guys, I cant' say enough about the reaper. He went over the top this time! Found me mint mirror t-tops. Can't wait to show them off at the next car show.

Woe! I'll bet those would have been a get out of jail card for someone!
He knows where another set is too!

Yes, nothing beats a nice set.

ROTFLMAO

-
Wait, your setting me up, I like to touch them too!
-

-
I needed a good laugh to start my day
-

-
I agree. He is grabbing me a hood tomorrow for the 98. ;D
-
I noticed there is still alot of help here from the Trans Am Reaper, who would get banned and still help fellow TA'ers, a nice guy, who likes The Reap?
1 vote from bird.
-
bring him back, pg-13 style...
-
he helped me and got my bird back on the road and was good to deal with.
-
1 vote from rrr76ta , although he sold the car with my parts on it . I talked to him and thought he's ok
-
He has my vote as well. Nice guy, very helpful and commited to the hobby! ;D
-
he helped me and got my bird back on the road and was good to deal with.
Not bad to drink with either!
-
He seems alright but ive never delt with him personally, i just dont like how he goes about doing things.
-
You would if you needed a part or something from him. Give him a break.
-
Learn to forgive and forget, it may be one of the best decisions you'll ever make... WOULD LOVE TO SEE BOBBYK BACK ON HERE.
-
He's sending me pics of his "mint silver t-tops" wonder if they could be bartered for a get out of jail free card. It takes a dedicated TA lover to continue to help people with their cars while not being able to deal directly with them in some cases. That's true character for you!
my vote is don't fear the reaper....bring him back
-
I gave him a second chance on here and he squandered it away. The second part of this post (which was merged from another topic) was about voting if you "like" the Reaper. This is not a vote to bring him back because I will not count the ballots for that, end of story.
