Have you ever gotten a car that you paid good money for but were either lied to about its reliability or in general you got ripped-off on the deal? I just got back from Country Classics and while it was great looking at the cars I wish they'd update their site as they have a great looking (In pics of course) Opel wagon that when I looked at it it seemed worse and broken tailights don't help either. Supposebly alot of the cars outside run right? Wrong!! These cars WOULD run if they were properly maintained but nope the only cars maintained at all are the $14,000+ shiny fresh classics while the cars outside rot away. Heck they have a few late 30's-50's cars outside that while they might take a bit to fix you could easily make a huge profit off of them if they were restored! They also have some Model T's in some of their storage places (with other cars) that are in good shape but I doubt anthing in theres maintained since it looks like a full-scale version of the "Rush Hour" puzzle game. My Dad at one point brought a '61 Corvair for $300 off ebay I beleive that while it made it to the house from the St.Louis airport we sold it for $75 I beleive and the new owner parted it out due to all the rust on it. Sorry if I've posted this before.
