You did not mention that you test drove the car, why wouldn't you check out the car for yourself or even have a mechanic look it over? If you could afford to pay a "premium price" for a "Christmas surprise gift" - you could afford to have a menchanic check it out. It seems like you purchased a vehicle over the internet based upon "photo's showing a perfect inside and outside of what my General Lee would look like when it was finished". Did you ask for photo's of the vehicle in it's current condition? You noted that you had a verbal agreement of a delivery date...why didn't you request the delivery date in writing? Did you ask or request in writing how the car was going to be delivered to you? You also mention that half way through your purchase, you found a negative report - if you came across something like that why didn't you just cancel your purchase? It appears that you purchased a vehicle sight unseen over the internet based upon photos that depict what the vehicle would look like all fixed up. It sounds like you you made a very pricey impulse purchase and then regretted that you didn't even obtain anything in writing and then you turn around and try to blame someone else for your lack of due diligence.

After, many complaints, this dealer sent me a few of my missing parts... Thank You!!! However, when I went to change the transmission pan gasket, I found the leak was due to the use of a pointed wood screw that somebody installed in place of a case hardened transmission bolt. Obviously, the threads were stripped... I continued to drain the fluid and remove the pan and discovered large clumps of metal shavings in my fluid, filter and pan. This transmission has to be shot... but I can't drive the car to find out for sure. I have concluded that it will cost me at least $5,000 to redo the motor and transmission... plus who knows how much to track down all my other missing parts. I will continue to keep you posted either way... good or bad.
