Gateway Classic Cars

Car became not available by the time I got in touch with them. Maybe next time.

Never responded to my question. I would not give a rating any higher than I did

The gateway classics apparently did not have the time to reach back to me after I sent them two emails. I gave them one week then moved on to another dearler ship and purchased a 1967 restored Cougar.

Never heard anything from anyone about this car. Wouldn’t take car now even if it was free

I started this search looking for MG's in the Las Vegas Nevada area only. That never happened. I even replied once stating I had a limited search area and all I got was continued listening hundreds of miles away.

Was talking to Kevin morse about the 70 thunderbird, then all of a sudden he cut off communication. I called twice more and left messages but no call back. I have no idea why he stopped communicating about the thunderbird.

I was called back within an hour of my request. The salesperson was able to answer all of my questions and was very honest and open.

I never hear back from the dealer about the availability or condition of the vehicle.

Would not trust with a single $1. Buy with EXTREME CAUTION and don't believe a single word they say. I bought an Opel from this dealership at their Tampa location and was told everything was in working order and was drivable. It was NOT in working order and the driving video shared was apparently from many months prior. First of all, they got the year wrong on the paperwork, which meant all of the paperwork had to be redone. I told them I would sign the new paperwork when I arrived in a week and a half time. After badgering me everyday for days to sign the updated paperwork remotely (should have been a big red flag, but I thought I could trust these guys), I signed the updated paperwork. They were clearly badgering me to sign the updated paperwork because the car was far from drivable. There was a MAJOR leak coming from the fuel tank (gushing ounces of fuel a second) AND a carburetor fuel leak, constantly dripping fuel inches from the exhaust header. Far from drivable. On top of this, they had to cold start the engine with starting fluid directly to the carburetor (likely also related to the carburetor leak issue, but sorting through that at the moment). Now when buying a classic car, I expect to have to do some work. I'm not complaining about the following, but would have appreciated being aware of these before buying - the headlights didn't work; one brake light was out; the aftermarket alarm for the car didn't work; there were some exterior and interior blemishes that conveniently weren't captured in various picture angles (I actually think some photos were doctored looking back at the picture, but obviously hard to prove)... These alone are annoying, but all of them are expected in buying a 50+ year-old classic car. What is NOT expected is to show up to a dealership expecting to drive a car away for them to have to start a car with starting fluid and when they add fuel, have that fuel pouring out of the bottom of the gas tank. Even if those were fixed, fuel dripping onto the exhaust headers is a recipe for highway disaster. I talked with the corporate team who felt this was an appropriate way to deal with customers. No redressability or accountability!

No response after sending questions to them twice regarding a car which they had listed and had recently lowered the asking price. No indication that they are very motivated to sell their inventory...
