They are being sold as museum quality cars which means they may not
run or drive and may not have run or driven in numerous years. The
vehicles are of a condition where they would be on display in a
museum. As museum pieces we were required to disconnect or remove
batteries and drain fuel tanks. Once again, these vehicles have not
been driven, or even started in quite some time. While we do our
best to provide the highest quality muscle cars with an honest and
reliable description and realize the importance of transparency
when selling vehicles. That being said, we have not built,
modified, changed or personally owned this vehicle. Whether this
vehicle is consigned or owned by Past & Present Motor Cars we do
not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be
clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have
prior to purchasing. Additionally, we not only welcome but we
encourage 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior
to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already
been sold. We list our vehicles on multiple websites and a vehicle
can sell at any time. If a customer chooses to purchase sight
unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer
accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot
address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important
all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort
to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this
information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after
an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and
timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify
the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition
before time of sale. Financing is Available with low rates and
Vehicle Shipping is available from our Showroom to your Garage. A
Classic Car Warranty is Available for Purchase from a 3rd Party.
