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

We decided it was time to put the 1947 Ford Super Deluxe Business Coupe (or is it a 1946) up on the hoist and the only word to describe what we found is pathetic. The missing mounts are minor compared to what we just found
Remember, it was advertised as "rust free, original, one repaint, safety certified, no need to spend anymore cash on this beauty."

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.

You should have taken him up on the offer to bring it back. I can understand why you are upset. Chalk it up as lesson learned, and fix it.

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

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.

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 .

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.

The biggest issue here is , Chad ultimately bought the car and drove it ( problem free ) all the way home .to Nova Scotia . If any of you think he is going to tear this down and restore / resto-mod this car to the highest level of anything he has ever built ( and go on a long road trip with license plates on it ) , you are sadly going to be disappointed . . Some of you can condemn the vendor all you want but , Jolene and Chad were not held at gunpoint to buy this car .

[@allen4881]

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!

@@mritron7649It is obvious that this seller was being less then forthcoming from the beginning of their discussion. 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. The whining is a bit much, and is about to run me off. He is even making reference to the situation as he starts the new project.

[@michaellund2410]

Hi Chad and jolleen watching your video of the underneath assessment of the car, I feel you were completely justified in saying it like it is. That car is unstable when cornering on the road, because when the car leans on a bend the stress is all on the side with the mount that's fixed the other side has no stress because it's not attached to the car. Potentially dangerous. Contact the owner and ask for payment towards repair, or legal action will be served. This will damage the reputation of the seller of the car, and the M. O. T TESTER, fined for wrongly issuing a certificate, if he has any common sense he will comply or ruin the reputation of two people's lively hood s. Respect.

[@Maintenance63]

I'm on your side Chad. You are teaching us to be very careful when buying a car. Even the best can make a mistake. Take a deep breath, exhale slowly. Roll up your sleeves and keep up the outstanding work.

[@jimwhittemore1610]

Guess you have to do more homework before you take it home, life lessons

[@almilton386]

As a mechanic with over 40 years experience I too have been skinned by a dishonest individual when buying cars. Lets see what is under that thing.

[@srfjay]

If you have 40 years of experience as a mechanic and still getting burned on inspecting a used car. Might be time for a new hobby.

[@marinom5602]

Watch the video when he bought it. They flew there, and eventually the owner said he would refund the money. And he also talked him down.

[@MickH60]

@@marinom5602 So what, it was still misrepresented and cost Chad a ton of money for flights and accommodation...

Mr I own movie cars is a rat. It's a pretty car on top. Hope you can enjoy it soon.

[@dantejones4551]

😂 I'm laughing because of how he finally addressed all of the negative comments folks were making. "It's....FFRRRAAUUUDDD...."😂 When the appraiser said, "Well just bring the damn car back..." I would have made a B-line to get my money back. Chad and Jolene probably got one-way tickets based on the phone calls to the owner and the "rust free and certified " add prior to leaving. I mean, you kinda expect some issues when buying a used car that the owner won't disclose, but this is ridiculous! But hey...it makes for GREAT content! 😂

[@yamahattr6006]

That's why people pay for an independent inspection before they get the car

[@darylmorgan9887]

Totally agree with Chad the certification and rust free on the car was misleading, but also agree that a proper thorough inspection should have been done before taking the car and upon that inspection gone from there as to negotiate a lower price or walk away. Chad was in the dilemma of believing Larry also as he has been in the car game for along time and being a car appraiser as well. Chad and Jolene spent a lot of money just to get there but Larry did offer money back which would have left Chad and Jolene to find their way home again. I can also see Chad,s point of selling the car As Is with a lower price there would not have been a problem. The car looks nice and i am sure Chad and Jolene can bring it up to scratch once again. In Australia we call it buyer beware.

[@keithworker8556]

When will the whining stop ? I guess you’ll just have to chop another piece of history.

[@curtgomes]

I bought an older car much the same way you did in this video. It was a California car and body rust was not an issue. But believe me it had plenty of other issues. It was my fault for not inspecting MUCH closer the interior and running gear, including the transmission. I was able to save the car, after much work and cost, but I was so disgusted I sold it. The person who bought it got a good deal and was happy. I did not want a phone call like this buyer had to make. I, of course lost a significant amount of money. It was a lesson WELL learned. I will NOT buy any used car without a thorough inspection. Eleven years ago I bought a used Lexus in 'very' nice condition from a dealer. Because of my previous experience, I bought the extended warranty. The car, with 54k, was an anomaly from Lexus and had some major mechanical issues. They (Lexus) completely fixed everything that was wrong and I ended up with virtually a new car. I just dread buying a car and have not done so for some years now. All the best. I understand your pain.

[@randallgd]

For sure have to be willing to walk away when it is not what the seller claimed it to be. Hard lesson I have to learn few times sadly. Sucks it was such a big hit on this one.

[@stephenlett9208]

Dude, you're supposed to be the car expert. My brother only finished his second year autobody apprenticeship. He flew to Ottawa to buy a $12000 truck. When he arrived the truck was not as advertised. He negotiated $8500 and drove it home.

[@darcy32171]

Here in Saskatchewan, you have 30 days to return with full refund if the vehicle is misrepresented...private or a dealer. That car was so badly misrepresented and not only in one AD, but the man had a second Ad with a different year on the exact same car 😳

[@rustinpeacegarage]

He had the chance and was offered his money back on the day

[@adotintheshark4848]

It's rust-free-if you stand 20 feet away from it. Far too many buyers of classic cars don't take the time to look underneath, let alone inspect the whole car, before dropping a chunk of change that might only be a well-dressed hooptie.

[@georgefletcher5596]

You should contact the Ontario ministry of transportation and let them know who safetied this car. They are clearly not qualified to for that position. The seller is responsible to meet that criteria. He knew exactly what he was selling . There are laws that protect you from this in Ontario.

[@francinechretien1454]

Enough with that ...admit you got screwed and get over it ...Don't even show up again in a car show in Toronto ...you'll meet Larry again !!!

[@chrisg6091]

KZbin is full of videos of old cars that look pretty but are horror shows on the hoist. Incredible mistake. Everybody is human - I once bought a secondhand Toyota Hilux from a Holden dealer in Burnie Tasmania, the dealer ticked a box saying 'no warranty' and in my rush I let it slip. Two weeks later the vehicle was off the road with catastrophic diesel engine failure. My dad, a senior automotive engineer all his life was offered an apparently pristine late model Mercedes by a neighbor, a week later the air-conditioning compressor blew taking out the radiator, condensor & lots of other expensive gear. It can happen to any of us in a moment of weakness.

[@Rick-S-6063]

Are you sure that's a 1947? The location of the parking lights seems to say it's a 1946.

[@jamesroets800]

You could have walked away from the deal, Chad. No shame in that at all. Stop the blame train here. You bought it. Appreciate the lesson on what to look for in older cars, but move on from this. Nobody likes to get burned, Chad.

Chad I have bought a few cars sight unseen and have for the most part got what I thought I was looking for. My wife thinks I am nuts for doing it but I am not afraid because I can fix most anything that needs to be done. I am new to your channel and love it.

[@cbcwoodworking6312]

Many times I have went to buy a car and took it with the owner down the road to a shop, threw shops owner $50 to put it on a lift. This is on you man. Fix it then sell it or make it better and keep it.

[@pierredentremont2999]

A rust free car does not exist in Ontario expect in the printed brochures. My first car was an eleven year old 69 Chevelle. It shortly needed a frame, floorpans, engine, tranny and much more! Gave up on it 5 years later but I did learn much that I have carried forward to today. Live and learn.

[@jamesscott5628]

Plz chad move on

[@fasteddyskil]

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.

[@briley7157]

Your lift made me more nervous than the old rusted Ford! Please be careful and I sense you are very grateful for all you have in your life. This is not a real problem like cancer, just a car needing more xo. Still like this car dispite you giving away all her secrets!

Hope you get it all worked out chad. Look forward to future videos on this to see the process of repair. Sucks that it wasnt a transparent transaction, but i still feel you got a cool ride after repaired. Stay being you chad..you are fun to watch!

[@craig322]

You had a chance to fully inspect the car before you purchased it and you even had a chance to get your money back that you paid for the car. You could have " cut your losses" and considered the plane tickets and Hotel stays as a vacation and rented a car to drive back home, instead of chasing your losses, and going all in, on a car you already knew was rusty.

[@MickH60]

What is it with you lot that you don't understand that the bloody car was CERTIFIED. That's a legal document supporting the condition of the vehicle, which clearly was misrepresented....

[@Rustykustom]

The mount that’s missing the hole for the bolt in the running board does not have one , the rubber just sits there with a dimple in the cross beam so it’s stuck between he cross mount and running board to help with people stepping on the running board ,

[@artbeaumont8225]

Wasn't there another one available in the area for less money? Thought that the man who picked you up from the airport said that he knew of another. Regardless ... I've earned my income from 60's/70's most of my life ... what you paid doesn't really buy much nowadays and especially in Canada. It's a beauty car and looks amazing plus it's already proved to you that it's reliable. "drivers" are way funner than trailer queens ... drive the fucking wheels off of it ... life is short!

[@JonDingle]

Chad you are an experienced car builder and customizer. I would expect you to know better, what to look for and what to avoid. Mechanically, we all know you are not an engine builder or gearbox rebuilder. But, anyone can tell a smooth engine from a misfire and a noisey gearbox from a quiet one. I do accept that there are less than honest sellers. However, someone with your knowledge must accept your own failure for not doing a proper inspection. No good bad mouthing the seller when as a professional your inspection skills are as bsd as the sellers description of the vehicle.

[@thomfult7956]

Chad is the only certifiable thing that should be addressed! He should have done his own due diligence at time of purchase as the seller would have let him!

[@scottlangille9900]

Obviously Chad didn't have his big boy pants on , the guy who sold it did.

[@lljones0]

Chad and Jolene, I appreciate what you both are teaching me here on what to look for or look out for on my next old car acquisition.

[@raydenney6986]

It's a FORTY SIX, for heavens sake. Somebody please check on the chrome mouldings. 46...46..46. Personally, 46 or not, I would have run away from this one. And I'm on my 97th car. Would have at least laid on the ground to check the underside, and I'm 85. No excuse for purchasing this thing. Leave it alone.

[@A.D.R.J.Coleman]

At the end of the day own up to not doing a thorough inspection you could have easily looked under car a lot better once it was pulled out of the garage! Dont trust anyone, especially on the internet!!! Karma will get Larry!! Also quit dragging out this topic

[@petefrancis880]

No way I'd be getting under that hoist LOL

[@therattyrod3342]

I seem to recall the car was pulled out of garage, and was in the driveway at one point. Maybe there was enough room to look under the passenger side then? Time to stop using that excuse. Not rust free for sure, but you probably should just man up, and admit that you didn't do a good inspection for yourself.

[@leblanckerry4826]

I’m with you 100%Chad and I know exactly what you’re saying. Life never stops teaching us lessons and this one was a hard one to learn. Sadly You just can’t trust anybody anymore

[@iandaniel2153]

yep! we tend to be moving into a post truth world ... however the seller here did offer a money back solution.

[@kenfrost3132]

I think you have more of a chance getting hurt from that car falling on you with that lift that the safety locks are not working on then you did on the drive home missing a couple of body mount bolts

[@rudiwendt5278]

Let's spend a lot of money for plane tickets buying a $25,000 car and after seeing some rust on it not asking to see it on a car lift and then when I get back home complain about about a guy that sold a car misrepresented. Bottom line buyer beware. You're not a child buying a car. You Chad, should know better especially after seeing rust on the fenders. Although you're complaining like a child because you made a mistake. Yes the guy was misleading but you had the chance to look it over. Admit it you SCREWED UP Chad. WOW.

[@beaupresley]

I agree with chad 100%, the car was totally described incorrectly, rust free means no rust, however I do feel chad could have walked away from the deal with perfectly good reason especially with his knowledge and experience.

[@barriecollins6838]

Chad and jolene your right they are body mounts that have the bits missing also there's no way the car passed an inspection in that condition. You have definitely got your hands full getting the bodywork sorted out it's got more holes than a cheese greater. Hopefully you can sort it out which I'm sure you can. Keep up the great work the both of you 👏 👍

[@flmulcahy]

Ok folks, todays lesson. When buying a car put it over a pit or on a hoist for an inspection.

[@ernieforrest7218]

in my opinon, you should have had the car thourally checked out by a qualified person before you ever left home.

[@howquick]

A 'qualified person'...like...an 'appraiser' 🤣🤣🤣

[@alanstackhouse2939]

He did.

[@MickH60]

It was certified, did you miss that bit ? That's a LEGAL document explaining the condition of the car....
