It's like this. If you're buying anything ask the seller if you can have a shop. Do a pre-purchase inspection. If the seller says no. Do not purchase the vehicle. Might cost you 100 bucks. I'd rather lose 100 over thousands any day

If you're buying car over 30+ you going to have problems let alone if it's been tampered with

@SILVERCHARGEDS

I always take my wife. I'm usually excited and have half blinders on. She starts pointing out everything, and does it in front of the seller. Lol

He could have hired an inspector for a few hundred bucks.

Another thing to remember is that 99% of these cars as well as 3rd gen Camaros have been beat to within an inch of its life. My first car was an 84 Z28. It was a clapped shitbox when I bought it in 1997. It didn't get any better I was not nice to that car.

I've been working on cars for 30 years and been in small shops, chain type muffler shops and big dealerships. If you don't know cars do some homework and find a shop you can actually trust. Always I mean Always have someone else look at it before you buy it. I had my Best Friend who also has been working on cars for 30 years look at the Fox I now own as I didn't want to miss anything before I bought it. You turn into a kid in a candy store and look too fast and can miss big things. It happens.

@Stainlessslayer

I stick to private sales. Too many dealers are willing to bandaid big problems and ask premuim price. Bought my fox from a retired army Sargeant. 48k miles looking fresh as the day it was bought in 86.

Don’t buy from a car dealer for a classic car most are flippers

@musclecarcamaroman9092

I had a buddy sell a really clean fox at one of those classic car dealerships here recently after not having much luck selling it on FB Marketplace. He established a reasonable asking price for what he needed to get for the car to let it go and they put a 1.5x multiplier on his asking price for their posted selling price. The car sold in about a month. You are not getting any deals at those places. It will for sure be some more work to hunt what you want down, but there is a lot more potential cost saving dealing with a private individual.

INTERESTING.... turn this car, into YT content and make a video on it!

@jimmyjimmy3649

Very good advice. A lot of times we just don't listen. When we bite the bullet we have to take the responsibility 😢.

@k5wxp22

I was at lunch with a friend, and his friend who was an old guy car dealer that had sold cars since the 60's. He was bragging about buffing/polishing a car and rolling the odometer back to "make it like a brand new car". Glad I never bought from him.

@richardwilson9560

Thanks for the great advice!🤙

@danawoodall8106

Good stuff as always man

@StLMikie

Dover putting on some weight? Jeremy, you boys getting with it down there.

@hotrodray6802

I know an extremely knowlegable custom body shop and mechanic car builder.... That got the screaming purple hornies over a tri-5 that looked fantastic.

@ledheadkustomplastic3442

When buying from a OLD CAR JOCKEY (HUSLER) Always have someone who knows about Old car's looking at it BEFORE YOU BUY IT!! 😎👍🇺🇸

@chriscolvin2640

Well said

@NotchFox

Sux that he got screwed, but wow.....due diligence guys. Common sense should tell you that if you are not compent to thoroughly inspect the prospective vehicle, take, or hire someone who is! These dealers are not your friend. Their money is in your wallet, and they feel it is their job to get it out of your pocket. They are good at what they do!
