Who is Kevin Mackay... a lawyer or a collector?


Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.

...Dom was led off in handcuffs by deputies at Mason-Dixon one year, in Ellicott City, MD...that's a fact, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't violate the User Agreement...

There have been a number of victims over the last 15 years with this guy, that is a fact. He turns up every 2 or 3 years and then disappears. I have not seen him since 3 years ago at a Mathews Auction. If he turns up rest assured I will call.

Funny this should pop up! Over the last month I've gotten calls from a private investigator and an injured party and both were looking for this guy. I asked why they had called me and was told it was because I had my phone number listed and had commented on another thread about him. I had mentioned that he was probably someone to steer clear of and that was the extent of it!
If that many people are looking for him, I'm glad I have never run into him. Kinda like a guy I used to know in the horse business--If he called, it was cheaper to just send him a hundred bucks if he wouldn't call anymore because ANY deal that you might get into with him was going to be costly!!! LOL

I thought name sounded familiar Mike.
Dominic Idoni name needs to come to the surface so people are aware of him.

Please note that the above picture is at least 8 years old...his physical descriptors at that time were as follows:

Approx. 5'5", 115 lbs. Dark hair, very slight build. Pale complexion. Very fast talker.

...he still looks the same - he popped up at Mason-Dixon Gas in Frederick, MD, a few years ago...he may have had a sparse beard...
