I agree totally on flying to or doing whatever to see car first hand. I bought a 36 Ford based on nice photos and a great conversation with the owner in Washington state. When the truck arrived in Illinois, almost didn't start on the truck, battery cables so loose. All "original" car had a lot of chrome stuff on the engine, wrong distributor and intake manifold. Long story short, a lot of work replacing parts and overdue maintenance but luckily the car turned out nice.
