He is not a dealer but a private citizen whom I purchased a classic car from. He was extremely deceptive about the car telling me how original the car was and how the body was absolutely solid and how he had owned it for 20 years which I'm even beginning to doubt. Being that I'm a complete newbie to these cars all the research I did was really no help and my inexperience was my downfall. I would point out a wavy spot and say is that bondo and he would say no thats just where the paint is a little bit uneven as its a 20 year old paint job. turned out both rear quarter panels the rocker panels the trunk and I'm sure I will find more were all full of bondo. most of these spots were pointed out to me later by a person who knows body work. This thief lives nearly seven hours from me so I unfortunately did not have a skilled person with me for checking out the car a mistake I will never make again. What is even worse is that after I negotiated a price which now I know was way more than I ever should have paid accounting for the body damage, he offered to let me use his plates to drive it home if I left a $150.00 deposit for their return which of course he did not return after I paid to ship his plates back to him just as I said even after already knowing he had ripped me off. Now he will not answer any of the forms of communicaton I have tried to reach him on. This man wait no thief truly is that and should be avoided at all cost if you do not want to be taken advantage of. He is not to be trusted at all.
