GBAs a seller As a seller, I was mislead and intentionally lied to. I would discourage anyone from selling or buying a car here. They are not on your side, and lie about purchase and selling price to be able to deceive both the buyer and the seller. They refuse to allow buyer and seller to talk after the deal. This prevents anyone from learning about the vehicle they purchase, especially if is a complex or modified one. This is to prevent exposure of the lies. Terrible experience. Crooked business.

GB77 Plymouth Gran Fury I bought a 77 Plymouth Gran Fury in Spring of this year from the Phoenix, AZ location. The car was trailered to my home in Plymouth, MI. I inspected the car and the exterior is okay, however, there were safety issues with the car. The windshield wipers don't work, the A/C is so bad, I have to replace all the major parts, compressor, condenser, evaporator, etc. the battery was missing the hold down bracket, so when I took the car for a test drive in my neighborhood, it died when I made a right turn as the battery was tilting when I made my turn and the positive battery post hit the underside of the hood. I had the battery issue repaired and drove it a few miles. I came back home and parked it in my garage for several days. I had to use the inside of my garage to do some wood cutting for a project and backed the car out of the garage. There is now a 6 foot long, 1 foot wide trail of automatic trans fluid on the floor where the car was parked. There's also a courtesy light on the passenger side of the interior that stays on 24/7, thus wearing down the battery. I took the bulb out so it would not wear down the battery. These issues were sent to the "salesman", Todd Schneider, but never heard a word back. These cars may be sold on consignment as he told me, but they are the ones handling all the documents and charging the exorbitant doc fees. They need to have a checklist like I've seen other antique car dealers use to check off ALL safety features on a car, such as brakes, wipers, lights exterior and interior, tires, A/C, etc. If something does not work or needs replacing, THE dealer needs to be responsible for repairing said problem or noting it on a checklist. I will NEVER buy from them again. They give the hobby a bad name and I have sent out emails to friends of mine who are also old car enthusiasts to not even call them to look at a car. When someone is looking to buy a car from out of state like myself, the dealer needs to be trustworthy to list any issues with the vehicle if they are not going to do the right thing and have them repaired. I would trust EBay before I would buy another car from them!

GBShocking service and quick transaction. As a 16 year old coming into what is considered a car museum, I received wonderful treatment when I told my salesman, David, I was interesting in taking a look at the car i purchased. With no hesitation, we talked a little about the car and he showed me all around it, then left and thought about it, and came back that same Friday. I was only there about an hour before the transaction was completed and i took off in my new 1996 Firebird Formula. Great experience. Will definitely come back multiple times a year and check their inventory. 10/10 would buy again.

GBI strongly recommend Gateway Classic… I strongly recommend Gateway Classic Cars. They accepted my original condition with one repaint 1965 Chevy Bel Air and marketed and sold my vehicle in about 30 days. They gave me an honest and professional market analysis of my vehicle which proved out in the sale price. I will do business with them again in the future.

GBI do not recall being told the $1000… I do not recall being told the $1000 deposit was non refundable. I never signed a single document. I had bad vibes about the vehicle. The comments made about the current owner definitely do not match maintenance records we were able to find during our investigation. Buyer beware do not leave a deposit unless you are absolutely sure and have done ALL your research.
