Of course I did. You seem to be a perfectionist, which is OK but means that any work that anyone else did probably will not satisfy you. That doesn't mean you should blame them for all the extra effort you chose to tackle. All the terms describing the car which you are complaining about are subjective. Things like "no leaks" in a 1970's car usually means "no drips on the ground below". You can stop all leaks if you change to modern materials like silicone gaskets and other resto-mod approaches. You decided not the inspect the car in person and to buy as-is, so unfair to publicly shame the seller over fairly niggly issues.
