Odometer Reading After Road Test

826

Comments: THE VEHICLE HAD A HEAVY BOUNCE AND NO SHOCK ACTION AT ALL. THE VEHICLE JUST BOUNCED HEAVY AND BOTTOMED OUT FEELING ON THE SLIGHTEST BUMP. UNABLE TO GIVE A NUMBER ON HOW HARD THE RIDE WAS, BECAUSE I WAS BOUNCING ALL OVER THE PLACE I WAS SURPRISED THAT JOHN WAS ABLE TO HOLD THE VEHICLE ON THE ROAD. THE AIR RIDE SYSTEM WAS INOP AND JOHN DID NOT KNOW TO ADJUST IT HE WAS SAYING THAT THE VEHICLE WAS UIP ALL THE WAY BUT IT WAS NOT. AND THERE WAS NO SEAT BELTS IN THE VEHICLE. THE ODO MILES WAS VERY HARD TO GET A GOOD PICTURE OF, BECAUSE OF THE BLUE BACK LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ON THE ROAD IN MY OPINION.

** THE VALUE WAS DETERMINED BY USING A SIMILAR VEHICLE SOLD AT AUCTION IN APRIL.

OVERALL COMMENTS:

  1. THE OVERALL PAINT ON THE VEHICLE IS FAIR TO GOOD AND THERE WAS NO VISIBLE RUST SEEN.
  2. THERE WAS AREAS ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE UNDER THE DOOR AREAS THAT HAS ENOUGH BONDO ON IT THAT A MAGNET WILL NOT STICK. FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE IS STILL BONDO RESIDUE IN BOTH AREAS. NOT A HEAVY AMOUNT BUT A MAGNET WILL NOT STICK AND LOOKS LIKE RECENT RED PAINT OVERSPRAY IN THEES AREAS.
  3. THE AIR RIDE SUSPENSION IS NOT WORKING AND THE VEHICLE IS SITTING AT A LEVEL THAT THE DEALER JOHN SAYS THAT IT WAS ALL THE WAY UP. BUT IT WAS NOT ALL THE WAY UP, AND NOBODY COULD DETERMINE HOW THE AIR RIDE SUSPENSION FUNCTIONS AND THE RIDE WAS SO BAD THAT I WAS JUMPING UP AND DOWN IN THE SEAT AND IT WAS BOTTOMING OUT WITH NO SHOCK ACTION AT ALL. AND THERE IS NO SEAT BELTS IN THIS VEHICLE. IT WAS HARD TO DETERMINE IF THE SYSTEM WAS WORKING AT ALL BUT WITH NO SHOCKS ON THIS VEHICLE IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE MUCH LESS THEN TO DRIVE SAFELY.
  4. THERE IS A SMALL METAL TAB ON THE LEFT SIDE DOOR JAMB THAT STATES THAT THE ENGINE NUMBER IS. BUT IT HAS BEEN TAMPERED WITH SO THAT I COULD NOT READ IT. I TOOK SEVERAL PICS ON HIGH RESOLUTION, BUT I STILL COULD NOT READ IT. IT LOOKS LIKE 59G095449 OR 59G095448? THERE AS AN INSURANCE SHEET IN THE CLOVE BOX ACCESS THAT STATED THAT THE VIN WAS 59G095449. BUT IT IS HARD TO TELL ONE WAY OR THERE. THE REAR TRUNK STEREO HAD NO INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO WORK IT BUT I COULD NOT GET IT TO COME ON. 5. THE UNDERCHARGE HAS UNDERCOATING ON IT BUT THE FLOOR PANS FEEL SOLID.
  5. THE UNDERCHARGE HAS UNDERCOATING ON IT BUT THE FLOOR PANS FEEL SOLID.
  6. IT IS A NICE VEHICLE BUT THERE ARE SOME PROBLEMS THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED. CUT OUT FRONT SPRING AND SHOCK WELLS ARE CUT OUT AND THE AIR RIDE SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND THE REASON FOR OVER LEAKING AND COOLANT LOOSE AND THE POSSIBLE IMPROBABLE VIN NUMBERS. I COULD NOT VERIFY IT. IT WOULD BE HARD AND UNFAIR TO CLASS THIS VEHICLE AT THIS TIME.

CONDITION CLASSES

Class One (Excellent):

Almost always a “body off” restoration, or an untouched, factory-perfect, piece that is very close to perfect. All components are either original or appear as new and are fully operational. This car is a top show winner and is not driven, but transported to shows by trailer. This car is almost “one of a kind”. This particular class of vehicle is very rare. The vehicle is completely detailed, including the engine compartment, interior trim, wiring, suspension, paint, and frame. Ideally, this vehicle has been judged with other vehicles in its class and achieved the highest point ratings.

Class Two (Very Good):

This car is well restored with an eye for detail. The interior and exterior show minimal wear, and it runs and rides smoothly. The car is driven very little (maybe 800 to 1,000 miles per year). This class is a slight grade below Class One. A Class Two has not been detailed to the extent that a Class One has been. This class (Class Two) has some evidence of use and wear, although not very much. It is considered “cherry” or “mint”. This vehicle might appear as a Class One until judged against one. It would not qualify as a 95, or better, “point” vehicle. (This class should have no rust on the undercarriage, not even surface rust.)

Class Three (Good):

This is a functional, drivable vehicle in good overall condition needing no, or only minor work. Most vehicles at car shows reflect this condition. This car is what is termed a “20 footer”. From 20 feet, it may look very good. Close inspection, however, would reveal some worn interior trim, and less than perfect paint (worn, and perhaps faded). You may even see some early evidence that surface rust is beginning in the body panels. This car is completely operational and is an “older restoration”. It is driven fairly often, runs great, and is enjoyed by its owner. It is probably a candidate for a full restoration. The undercarriage may display surface rust, and may be in need of detailing. Chrome and trim may exhibit limited pitting

Class Four (Fair):

This type of car is a fun “driver” with a solid frame and is structurally sound. This car is in need of considerable work. It needs work in and out. Cosmetics, body, and mechanical components all need work, to some degree. It is not a serious collector candidate. Soft floors, isolated areas where rust has eaten through (but not structural), excessive use of Bondo, lots of pitted chrome, glass repairs are symptoms of this condition. Badly soiled headliners, badly soiled and ripped upholstery, rusted out trunks are also signs.

Class Five (Poor):

This type of car is in need of complete restoration and may, or may not, be able to be driven. The exterior body panels have significant areas of rust-through. The floor and structural components may, or may not, be intact. This car is usually the first project for layman’s attempt at restoration.

Class Six (Parts Car):

This type of car is good for parts only.

DISCLAIMER

This inspection and the opinions expressed are exactly that, opinions. Many parts perform perfectly until the moment of failure. Failure may occur suddenly and without warning. The inspector and/or all parties relative to the compilation of this report cannot accept liability for failures, which may occur after the inspection is completed. By accepting this report, the consumer acknowledges that the inspector and/or all parties relative to the compilation of this report, cannot be held responsible for any and all alleged vehicle defects, and further, the consumer releases and holds harmless the inspector and/or all parties relative to the compilation of this report from any and all further claims on this vehicle. No warranty for this vehicle is implied or given by the inspector and/or all parties relative to the compilation of this report. In each case, the consumer has the opportunity to see the car in person before he or she buys the car. Buying this car based on this report alone is completely at the consumers’ own risk.

 

JJ’s Auto Pre-Purchase Inspections does not do the inspection for you. JJ’s Auto Pre-Purchase Inspections is a company that facilitates the completion of your inspection through its affiliates, inspectors, or their contractors. The inspections are placed with an independent inspection service or contractor in the area where the vehicle is located.

 

The Independent Inspector provides a visual inspection of the vehicle. That statement is not meant to imply that we warranty the vehicle. The inspector does not move, remove or reposition anything during the inspection process. Due to potential liability, the inspector does not drive the vehicle but will be in the passenger seat with the owner, or a person authorized by the owner, to do the actual driving. We simply give you a good visual report on the vehicle. No warranty is implied or given. It is up to the buyer and/or seller to provide a lift to inspect the underside. A jack and jack stands are NOT acceptable. The seller and/or buyer must also provide a well-lit area for the inspection to take place with ample room for the inspector to perform his/her job.

 

We like to say that the Independent Inspector is like having your best friend look at a vehicle for you when you can’t physically look at the vehicle yourself. It’s the next best thing to being there. The Independent Inspector is working for the buyer in this instance.

 

We are dealing with vehicles that are 40 years old or older in many cases. If you contract for an inspection you must understand that the Independent Inspector will NOT find everything wrong on a particular vehicle. If a vehicle has a leak that is not constant (often called seeping,) the Independent Inspector might not detect it. He will not find every problem on a vehicle. Often these vehicles have far more Bondo in them than can be detected in a visual inspection. What this service should be used for is to make sure that a vehicle that is advertised as being in No. 2 condition is not in fact a No. 4 condition vehicle. In other words, the Independent Inspector will help to determine if you are buying a vehicle that was grossly misrepresented based on its condition class and purchase price. (See the definition of condition classes at the end of your report). The appraisal fee is based on the inspectors’ written/typed report and digital pictures. JJ’s Auto Pre-Purchase Inspections, and Quality Control are determining the appraisal based the inspectors’ report and pictures. Neither JJ nor Quality Control has seen the vehicle first hand.

 

The Independent Inspector simply inspects the vehicle. We do not counsel the buyer. We do not make recommendations on whether to buy a vehicle. As in all cases, the buyer makes his or her own decision on whether to buy a vehicle. We suggest that the best way to use the Inspection Service is to have us look at a vehicle and issue the report. Then if the vehicle seems to be what was represented to you by the seller, make a final inspection of the vehicle yourself, prior to purchasing the vehicle. Because we are dealing with 30- to 50-year-old vehicles, we do not warrant the condition of any vehicle. That means we will be happy to look at the vehicle to see if there are any visible problems, but we are not providing any guarantees or warranties on the vehicle.

 

Understand in advance that if you buy a vehicle and you find something wrong with the vehicle after your purchase, we will NOT reimburse any expenses that you are charged to fix the vehicle. This is not a mechanical warranty. JJ’s Auto Pre-Purchase Inspections, or its affiliates, inspectors, or their contractors related to the inspection, will NOT reimburse you for any repairs, mechanical failures or bodywork you have done after the purchase of a vehicle.

 

The inspection reports show the areas of the vehicle, which are visually looked at in the report. The report covers only those areas. Do not assume that the Independent Inspector will inspect anything other than the areas covered by the report form.

 

The contents of this report will tell you what the Inspector finds at the time of the inspection. Please understand that after the Inspector leaves the vehicle we are not in control of what might occur to the vehicle, nor do we have control of parts that may be on the vehicle at the time of the inspection, but taken off or switched later.
