Terrible. Ive had four separate major problems and several minor ones

2

I flew to phoenix to purchase a beautiful car and it exceeded my expectations. Before I got in the driver seat. I wasn't able to test drive it so I had the seller do so. everything seemed great. I wasn't able to drive because I was told it had a reverse manual valve body tranny (the automatic has to be shifted). the sales lady said it did because she didn't know what it was! anyway we took a short cruise up and down the alley and it rode and ran well. so I bought it. Upon "expedited delivery" ($700 extra paid for 1-2 day delivery). When the car came 4 days later instead of what I was told would be 1-2 days, I paid $700 extra dollars on top of the $400 for absolutely nothing! The car. first impression, the brakes were spongy, it didn't have a reverse manual valve body transmission as I was told so I was trying to shift. I called and pam the sales lady and she said it had an automatic-no idea what I was talking about with shifting an automatic car... but she said yes when I asked. I let it go at that point but the number of other issues put me over the top. First, brakes. master cylinder on 4 disc wildwood system shot. Motor, I was told it was a 383 motor stroked to a 408 but it turned out to be an older cheaper 360 Mopar A motor stroked to a 408. The headlights, pointed all over the place and the adjustment screws were rusted and shot. The driver door only opened from the inside. The window crank took a body builder to turn. The new carpeting was cheaply and stupidly cut and stapled to wood interior inserts...-on a $40,000 car... The alternator was shot and wouldn't charge the battery which was also no good! So new battery $130, Alternator and labor $700, brakes estimated cost $800 (they're being worked on now, door and window repair $400, reverse manual trans body $300/ installation est. $800-$1000, shipping $700, not to mention the 383 motor I was lied to about. 360 block cost compared to a 383 block? A lot of money time for me to do all this and miss work? THOUSANDS do the math for a turn key car... low estimate? $3730 in parts and labor to have a drivable car Without my wasted time
