Sorry dude. Get your money back! The seller cannot sell something that doesnt even work. If it doesnt run, its useless and you have nothing and he has your money. Dont be a fool, take it back to him or be a sucker

I hate to see this kind of crap and feel for you! Hear the difference in a real MS4 cam: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-0PLJcpt1M
Stock cam in that one!
Sad he advertised bad info. On another note I would never buy something from someone with 20 posts and 0 feedback. Just not worth the risk!
Glad you are fixed up now

1, I represented the car as it was represented to me when I bought it. I didn't build it so I went with what he said was in it when it was built.
2. He didn't buy my car, he traded his truck for it which he claimed he built, but have no real way of knowing that, parts didn't look as new as they whould have but whatever.
3. I drove the car almost 300 miles with no issues from GA to NC. The month before I drove it to AL and back. I didn't trailer anything since we traded.
4. He took the car up the street and back and then said the SES light came on but didn't see any issues. He then said, and I quote, "I don't give a ****, I really don't care" reffering to the SES light. I then asked him if he was sure about it and he said yes, so we swapped keys and parted ways.
5. He called me about 40 minutes later to tell me it stopped running. I didn't know what the problem was and had no idea what he was doing with it during that 40 minute period. I was going to come back so I got off the interstate and a cop ran his plate that I had left on the truck. I got pulled over because he didn't have insurance on it apparently. So after almost going to jail I got let off with a ticket. I went to leave and nothing, the battery died so I had to wait on AAA to come out to the middle of nowhere. Got home and noticed the rearend was whining. Ended up having to re-do the rearend in the truck.
6. Both vehicles had open titles from the previous owners so there is no proof either one of us had owned either one of the vehicles. We both went into a blind private party trade knowing all we could know about eachothers vehicles.
PS. After almost getting arrested because he didn't inform me that he was riding on a tag with no car insurance registered to it, and then having to wait 1 hour on AAA due to a dead battery kind of made it hard to come back. Plus I was highly pissed off that he would let me drive on the tag like that, I would have taken it off if I had known that. So we both got screwed and both had to put money into eachothers vehicles, plus I almost got arrested so think what you want about the situation. Also, you can take my phone number off of your post since I didn't give anyone permission to post my personal information on their threads. I did not knowingly sell him a car that had issues that were known to me and i'm not saying he knew about the rearend of his truck, but the tag issue is debatable. There are 2 sides to every story and I just now ran across this thread and thought I would share the other side of it.

bla bla bla........ Anyways whats done is done. And I did say they I did not care about the check engine light, because I planed on building a engine for it anyways. Just not 40min after I got it. As far as the plate. Plates are not insured cars are. At least in any of the states I live in. And if NEMISISWS6 story is true he has the worst luck ever. He got of the highway in the middle of no where and there just happened to be a cop who ran his plate for no reason. HMMMMMMM..... And he says he knew the truck was not titled in my name but still thought that I had it plated.
Anyways I do not care. My car is up and running and here is the video of it. I LOVE IT AND CAN'T TO SPRAY IT

When they run your plate it shows if the vehicle has insurance or not. It would have been nice to know that it didn't have insurance that was linked to that tag before I drove off. You don't have to believe it just like I don't have to believe you weren't going ***** to the wall on the way back and might have missed a shift or done something else to cause it. At any rate, we both had **** happen & I didn't intentionaly do anything so it would be nice if someone would fix my signature so it doesn't say "don't buy anything from me" anymore.

Man that sucks. My truck magically went to **** mechanically (a 72, it's to be expected) as soon as I got home with it. Everything had to be replaced. When my dad got his 2000 Formula a couple months back (bolt ons, ported 241's, 12 bolt with 4.10's, 228 cam, ram clutch) the bearing in one rocker arm went out leaving him limping to a shop on 7 cylinders the second day he had it and the first day he brought it to work. The guy also installed .600 lift springs on a .600 lift cam so those were worn out, the tune was way off, and it devoloped a leak at the cut outs on the way home because it's too low and hits the ground. Used built up performance cars (especially with 100,000 miles like my dad's) with unknown maintenance and possible inexperienced builders aren't always the best bet for reliability.
