Purchasing a car from a private seller. Nightmare.

Hello all! I know it's been awhile since my last post but i'm getting closer to getting this thing resolved! Since i last posted i have been working on getting the car over to Bob's guy Dave with the frame equipment but was hitting a snag. Dave had a car up that they couldn't solve for so it was being put off week after week. When he finally had an opening the damn car wouldn't start. Had a "mechanic that makes house calls over and he determined i needed a new distributor and possibly a new carburator. I ended up taking it to Pep Boys and they replaced the distibutor and the fuel pump. They said to hold off on the carburator for now. Picked it up last Friday and it runs really well. So i called Dave today and let him know. He's able to get the car in on Wednesday! I asked him if we were clear on the fact that Bob was footing this repair and he said 100% yes. I'm back in the game! I'll let you know how the repair goes. Thanks again for the advice!
