Cars for sale that dont live up to expectations

I drove 1600 miles to look at a car last month (non-Mopar classic). When I got there I found it was much rustier than expected. The owner seemed very knowledgeable about the car but got amnesia when it came to knowing about the rust in the typical places. On another note, a friend of a friend came back for the second time after looking at my Valiant. He had asked me what "I had to get out of it". He came back with 75% of the money in cash and thought I would drop my drawers at the sight of the wad. :rolleyes: I guess its all just part of the hobby.
