Sad that you got lied to. I figure any vehicle that " ran when parked" and minus a battery or carb should be considered to need a replacement engine and priced accordingly. If the seller doesn't agree, walk away.

I am kicking myself a little. If I had brought my coolant pressure tester I would have found out up there and maybe been able to negotiate.

But you live and learn and believe no one
