    Less than 1500 miles after purchase the engine threw a rod, wrecked third gear synchro and has had problem after problem after problem. I was told that the car was in really good shape and it wasn't. It has been sitting in my garage now for a year and a half with the engine and trans pulled wondering what I should do with this wreck. As I dismantled the car I found that the car was very poorly put together with screws stripped or snapped, missing bolts, brackets etc. I soon realized that this car was just thrown together from other wrecks for a quick sale! I bought it on good faith and was lied to. I was bitterly disappointed. I thought at first I was unlucky but then I heard from other people in the area (including some very reputable companies) that this story is all to common with this particular seller! Now I have to pay out more than the car is worth on engine and transmission rebuilds and all the missing and broken parts on this car.

    With my personal experience in mind, I can't say that I'm surprised.

    Sorry about the car man. Probably would cost more to fix it the right way than to just get another one.

    Did you try getting a hold of Hans first? I'm sure he wouldn't leave you hanging.

    Yes I did but he was no help. I asked if he had another engine I could have for cheap and he said no he didn't have any. Funny that, when I bought the car he told me he had loads of spares, engines, transmissions etc. but when I needed them of course he didn't have any and couldn't help me. It's a shame 'lemon laws' don't exist in PA.

    Sorry to hear, I wish I could help. I have a blown up engine of my own though.

    Some of it was deliberate, most was coincidence. The story can be seen in my build thread (for the most part). If you want the full story you can PM me.
