Due to our inventory size, location, and sometimes inclement weather, we are unable to drive every vehicle for long distances. We also cannot guarantee that every gauge, light, window, horn, option, function, etc., will work as it should. These cars are old, and components can fail at any time with little or no warning. Iowa is a non-inspection state; therefor, please check your local and state inspection/emissions requirements. Please note that we do not guarantee any factory or aftermarket air-conditioning systems, gauges, or electrical systems. Given the nature of the vintage vehicles we sell, these components will need upkeep or attention. In addition, many times these vehicles sit for long periods of time and once you begin to drive them, seals harden and gaskets may begin to leak. Classic cars are like old Harley motorcycles, they always leak. Please make sure you are comfortable with this before buying a vintage automobile. Classic vehicles will always require a certain amount of maintenance and upkeep. The information provided in this ad is solely for your convenience and advertising purposes. The description is an opinion only and should not be considered a complete description of any or all faults; it may not be relied upon nor taken as fact or otherwise a representation or warranty of any sort. Please note, we did not build or restore the vehicle. Some vehicles will come with original paperwork, restoration receipts, books, manuals, covers, additional keys; should the vehicle come with any of these items it will be listed in the description and sometimes shown in the photos. All vehicles are sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS with all faults known/unknown and with no implied warranty. ALL SALES ARE FINAL, with no exceptions. Mileage will be considered "exempt" due to age, unless otherwise specified in the description. Pre-Purchase inspections are welcomed and encouraged. We provide many detailed photos, YouTube “walk-around” videos, and describe these vehicles to the best of our ability; however, we are only human and there may be something we miss or see totally differently than you. If you have any questions or concerns, please call or email before making purchase. We do offer a classic car extended warranty package through Freedom Warranties, please contact a Thiel Motor Sales representative for exact coverage and cost.
