The 1947 Ford is on the hoist... ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC ❌

[@AndyH-13]

I remember the seller saying the car had been for sale for a while due to buyers not liking the colour of the interiors upholstery. I think it was still for sale because potential buyers had taken the time to inspect the underside and body of the car and found it needed significant repairs.

Well Chad, I'm an auto mechanic, and I get very upset with my customers that buy cars without putting it on a lift first. As my dad would say, if the seller won't let you take it to a mechanic to look over, don't buy it. I won't even give an exhaust repair quote without putting it on the lift. Everything looks different on the lift.

[@clintupham4466]

Although true, he did buy one that was on a lift and certified did he not. And that comes with a price because that certificate can make the car worth much more. It's fraud.

I don't care. It's a good looking car inside and out. It made it home some 1400 miles (2000 km). Just fix the fucking thing and enjoy. What you're doing now, you should have done before handing over the cash. EDIT: Okay. My comment above was before watching the video. But I stand by what I said. NO ONE is disagreeing about the seller's misrepresentations. He may very well have committed fraud. That shoddy repair work, done sometime in the past IS, in fact, pathetic. And most likely NOT certifiable for safety purposes But THAT is not the point. The fact is that you paid some twenty thousand plus dollars for the car and couldn't be bothered to ask for it to be driven to the closest lift for further inspection. Had you done so, you would have either walked away, or negotiated a $10-15,000 reduction in price. You chose to do neither.

I was shocked when Chad purchased this vehicle with little more than a cursory look at it. In watching many car build and restoration shows I have watched as they throughly examined every vehicle prior to puchasing them. To include wallowing in mud and worse to verify the sellers statements in regards to the intended purchase. One of the tells for me as regards a problem was when just prior to puchase Chad turned to Jolene and asked if she liked the car, her response was; 'If you do, I do'. After three plus years of watching Chad and Jolene interact it seemed a bit strange that she was not more specific when answering. Chad messed up. Plain and simple. All the whining in the world does not relieve him of the responsibilty of not doing due diligence before purchasing this car. 'It was to close to the wall'. 'How was I to see this, that and the other thing under the car'. Give me a break. You are a professional. I've seen you look, look, and look again before doling out cash. 'Let The Buyer Beware', is the foundational position from which to start the examination of a potential purchase. Just please stop the whining!

And as it went on the little details, such as the way the vehicle was conveniently parked in a way to inhibit a detailed examination As well as nuances in the conversation that should have been triggers. Particularly in the purchasing of vintage vehicles sadly a buyer has to assume that there will be discoveries that the seller will not reveal. They then will claim ignorance of the basis whatever that discovery or the less then truthful advertisement for the sale excluded or embellished. It's was Chad's responsibility to thoroughly examine the vehicle, top to bottom, front to back before purchase. Chad let himself and Jolene down by being flippant in the why he handlec this situation. I have never seen a vehicle purchased by Chad or other similar You Tubers were they didn't get a good look at the undercarriage. The mount that started the downward spiral of discoveries was 6" underneath the vehicle. Chad just needs to accept responsibility for a poorly executed purchase and move on.

I bought a car in Australia, from a dealer, described as 'truly wonderful' condition and phrases like that. Took it for inspection, they gave 4 pages of stuff to fix before they would even look at it properly. Told me it would be 7000 to do that much on a car that I paid 8k for. I complained to dealer who said tough luck and he didn't believe he was required to describe accurately in ads. So I gave negative feedback on his web ads. He was on the phone immediately begging me to retract as it was 'costing him sales'! I said only if you take car back and refund. I got 95% refund... ONLY because I had that feedback power. Otherwise he would have done nothing and the legal people I spoke to said not worth trying to sue over the ad. So if you took the time to read that.... BE WARY! Trust noone.

There is no hole in the frame is a clue to what and how that is for. The L bracket has a hard rubber pad that supports the running boards. A center bolt fastens the rubber bushing to the bracket and the running board sits firmly on top of the rubber pad. Had you consulted with someone who knows, you wouldn’t have to assume or keep guessing. This is straight forward for those of us who have knowledge in these areas .

You should always take a used car (especially an old one) to a shop and have it looked at before you buy it. You spent $23000 on the word of the owner you never met before. Plus if you had read the certification you would of seen it was expired. This is all on you. Don't blame anyone else.

You are right there are two body mounts missing, with that said the sills are not load-bearing since the car has a frame. So one hour to fix two body mounts, the rest is cosmetic. The sills are standard rust places on those Fords, so if you had done some investigations before you had known where to look/and feel. Finally, where I live I should be very careful not to accuse someone of fraud on youtube, could be very expensive.

Chaddy, He did say, "that you were the one that should have this car". Check the tape! If a couple of people looked at it and didn't pick it up, that was your first indication that something was awry . If it isn't 1947, why didn't the Motor Vehicles Branch pick up on that? If the car came across the Border from the US, the K22 form should have been checked and verified that it is what it is. Consequently, the Canadian and the Ontario Governments let you down on the registration of this car. The serial number should be located on the left front frame horn so you can verify the serial number and year it was made.
