Watch out for Robert at Victory. I bought a vintage auto from him and on the way home it ran out of gas, but the gauge did not show empty. I called Robert to come get me as I was stil about a mile from the shop. He said. no, it was my problem. I'd just spent $55K and that what I get? So I called AAA and when they got to me an hour later, the gas cap was locked and the key he gave did not work! So I called Robert to ask for the correct key and he said he gave it to me and to stop calling me since it was sold as is. He also promised to give me the original radio worth about $600 which was out of the car for repair. I never got that either. I towed my new car to the repair shop where they got the cap off and put anew non locking cap on. The car had hesitation blues and I spend about $15K getting things fixed that were promised all worked. The wiring harness was represented to be new with the total restoration, but the interior lights and other stuff did not work. One day my son told me the garage smelled like smoke so I went and found that the wiring system was burning the new carpet. Back to the repair shop and found the old wiring system had not been replaced and had no insulation in places. Damn near burned down my garage with 3 vintage cars, 4 motorcycles and all attached to my home! I have since found that he purchased a Porsche log/owners manual on ebay under a different name and combined it soon after with a Porsche 911 that he was selling as evidence of the car's service history. This guy is a total liar and not to be trusted. Watch out for Victory Motor Cars and Robert!
