 I purchased a vehicle from these crooks, and they flat out lied about its condition. The vehicle was a customized jeep and was stated to be professionally done. It was far from what was stated.The brake lights were said to be working, there was a short in the wiring for the left brake light. The tail lights were said to be working, they worked with the running lights only not with the headlights.  

The off road lights were not even wired. The gas line had a leak on top of the gas tank. The engine had an antifreeze leak. The front differential was leaking. The engine also has a leak from the rear main seal.

The ad also stated that the vehicle had new two-stage paint, which is a joke. The body work and paint look like they were done by a child. There isn't a straight body panel on the jeep and the paint looks like a rattle can job, not to mention all the overspray on everything.

Also, the windshield wipers were stated to be working, but there weren't even any wiper arms or blades. The last thing was that the vehicle would not even start when the transporter delivered it to me, I had to put a new battery in it to be able to drive it.

I have over $350.00 in parts to repair the minor things so far, not to mention over 40 hours of my labor, and this has not even touched on paint and body issues.

World Wide Vintage Auto claimed the vehicle was "professionally built" and "fires right up, drives incredible and shows very well", besides stating everything meantioned above. They also said twice in the ad that it was new paint on the vehicle.

Their offer to correct these issues was to give me $500.00 for everyyhing if I would sign an agreement not to give them any bad reports or tell anyone. I told them it was worth that much to me to let everyone I  could how bad they screw people over, so they could take their $500.00 and shove it.
