I purchased a car that was on ebay from Marv Friedman aka Marvin Allan and Ricgard Hofberg of Cars of Yesterday Inc. It was listed as a perfect show car. It was a 1965 Thunderbird convertible. They convinced me to buy it before the auction ended to get a better deal. I did and payed 21500.
After about a month of waiting they told me that I had to send an additional 650 for rust repair of the trunk or they could not ship the car. This was on a car that I was told had no rust anywhere. I paid the 650 and the 1200 to ship the car, when I got it was a rusted out hulk with huge cracks in the dash, worn out interior, rust everywhere. None of the accessories worked and I was told everything worked perfectley.
I was also told the car was an original 32000 mile car but it easily had 232000 miles on it. The engine serial number was missing as where the engine bay supports that keep a convertible from bending. There where too many things wrong to list on this car that I was told both in print, on ebay and in emails and on the phone was a perfect show car.
I just sold the car for 14000 and took a huge loss. There are several other people that are filing complaints with this company and dozens more too embarassed to.
