Coyote Classics
GROSSLY MISREPRESENTED condition of "classic" ca

Saw online ad for 1955 Ford. I telephoned & was given location, condition, transport fees, & price. Coyote Classics included several photos of the car in the ad.& I spent hours inspecting them & looking at similar cars for price comparison. I also checked with several car value expert web sites. With every concern I contacted Coyote Classics for explanations.

The following are direct lies that I was told regarding the concerns that I had expressed.
Door fit... Was told fit is perfect & that a bad camera angle & or glare caused appearence of poor fit.
Regarding apparent tears in upholstery... Was told that I saw only dirt & that once they detailed the car upholstery is great.
Window condition... I was told the glass is perfect... in fact 2 windows are broken.
I questioned the driveability... Was told the engine & transmission were very strong & could be driven anywhere... The car leaks various fluids so bad that I covered garage floor in card board trying to soak up most of leaking... I am embarressed to drive due to billowing smoke.
This car has rusted front cross member, ratty upholstery, rusted roker panels, rusted top. I replaced plugs, points, fuel pump, carb. Drained oil as thick and dirty as I have ever seen. Driver's side door body work is crumbling apart. Hundreds of dollars in necessary parts are missing.
Car was to be detailed, all fluids changed, & tuned prior to shipping to me.

I accepted several hundred dollars from Coyote Classics to leave them alone, drop BBB claim, & replace some of the parts. I have left them alone for nearly a year now, but I have not been able to drive the car, actually have less than 100 miles since I got it. It is currently broken down & parked in my garage. I agreed to drop all of my complaints, but I spent a large portion of my retirement fund to buy this "show" car.

I need to warn any other unsuspecting potential buyers to beware. I asked direct questions about this car & Coyote chose to tell me direct lies. Buyer Beware. I am totally disabled & wife has lost a full 90% of her income. Had high hopes that at worst this car would hold it's value so I could sell if I ever had to. Problem is that the car is worh about 50% of what I was taken for.
