I once brought a museam piece as the description went. Thank god I did not forward any funds and stated I would pay upon pickup. All I lost was the travel costs. It was far from even driveable.

It was almost the worse car I have ever seen. In the pictures and description it was fabulous. He wanted to ship it to me but I was insistant we would look at it first when we picked it up.

Actually you might get better results by posting this in the cars for sale and wanted section.
