Verifying 350?

[WarrENDeatH]

I found a really, really good deal on a 350 via private seller. It is across the country.

Is there anyway to verify the car? I have the VIN, dozens of pictures of the car, etc. CarFax is completely clean. No issues. Does the Chassis number appear in the VIN? Can I cross reference that in anyway?

You should get Oasis report from Ford dealer service dept, that will give you warranty and other work done on car

Lots of scams out there. Be very careful. Never drop a deposit.

Also u should get a test drive period of time detailed in days and miles, drive it hard, check for oil consumption

Ask the seller if he or she is willing to do a pre-purchase inspection at your cost, preferably at a high-performance auto shop, worst-case scenario at a dealership. I would never buy a used car from anyone, private party or dealership, without one.

Ya right. "Here take my friggin R for a few days brother...beat the piss out of it for me". LOL. I don't see that happening even if the buyer leaves his wife behind for a comparable test drive.
