I made an Inquiry about selling my car and the young lady over the phone gave me the run down... "Bring in the car, we'll go over it and tell you what we think we can sell it for, if you agree the car stays over the phone gave me the run down... "Bring in the car, we'll go over it and tell you what we think we can sell it for, if you agree the car stays with us for 90 days and if we don't sell it you owe nothing." So...I clear my Tuesday morning and sit an appointment for 10:30am to do just that. I get there and the young guy greets me and just immediately pulls up cars on line that are not even comparable to my car saying this is what he thinks he can sell it for. Mind you didn't even go out and bother looking at my car either, Brought up a 2011 RS Car that has 3500 miles on it and said see...this is what I think we can get for yours. Mine is a 2011 Yenko Camaro w/ just over 18k miles, Supercharged with every bell and whistle available... Not even close to an RS Wasted my morning guys, Thanks. A total waste of time. More
I’m the guy who put a non refundable deposit on a 67 XR7 GT Police interceptor 428 CJ On the phone with Kevin 17 min. A lot of locker room talk. A lot of ball sack talk I just want to be a cougar. I was t GT Police interceptor 428 CJ On the phone with Kevin 17 min. A lot of locker room talk. A lot of ball sack talk I just want to be a cougar. I was told I need to put my credit card online for a deposit. This cougar was so hot. It would’ve sold in four hours. Got a hold of another gateway rep in Chicago. Explain my situation. I need to go directly where the vehicle is, that would be Compton North Carolina at that point I spoke with dawn She had my deposit in three minutes. Now it’s OK for Lemmon Squad to look at the vehicle. As Kevin told me prior, he does not want Lemmon Squad out there. They devalue his cars and they wrecked one of his cars. He’s got the best inspector in the world. It’s been inspected and it’s good to go. as soon as Lemmon Squad got out there, the first thing they noticed very low engine oil. Dipstick registered quarter inch thick black mud. They’ve been starting his car up. They drove it around for videos revving up the engine, yada yada lots of power I’m sure that cluttering on top of the engine was not a mechanical lifter and camp set up the engine was begging for oil not to mention the rust bucket underneath the car. Buyer beware this is an expensive project car. More

BUYER BEWARE! I recently purchased a 77 Cadillac Coupe de Ville from Kevin at Gateway Classic Cars. They were very nice and friendly over the phone. I am di I recently purchased a 77 Cadillac Coupe de Ville from Kevin at Gateway Classic Cars. They were very nice and friendly over the phone. I am disappointed in the fact that Gateway apparently does not check out the vehicles that are brought in for sale. I was told the Cadillac was road ready and I could drive it home 600 miles. I am glad I decided to have it towed instead of driving or I never would have made it home. The first thing I noticed when the driver took it off the trailer was NO brake lights. I could hear the transmission slipping in reverse when he was backing it off the trailer. I got in the car and noticed how far the brake pedal went to the floor. Brake lights did not work so I replaced the fuse and it blew right away so I knew that there was a major electrical problem Upon inspection I found it needed a major tune-up; all the rubber bushings in the front end need to be replaced; all the brakes need replaced, the transmission needs replaced. The A/C compressor is locked up; climate control inside the car does not work. The paint job looks good 20 feet away; up close you can see rust spots and paint bubbling. Overall it is going to cost ME an additional $6000.00 to $8000.00 to make it road ready. LIAR, LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE! I hope you burn in xxxx. Thanks from a disabled veteran. More
Best experience ever!! I feel compelled to share my experience @Gateway Orlando because it ended better than I could have dreamed. Kevin began the process all over the phone. I never felt pushed or coe experience @Gateway Orlando because it ended better than I could have dreamed. Kevin began the process all over the phone. I never felt pushed or coerced. He let me move at my own pace and gave me immediate answers to any questions I had. If he didn’t know an answer he contacted owner and found out! I scheduled a visit for the following week since I lived out of town. The week went by with such patience and confidence on their part, ensuring me how happy I would be in person I felt emboldened to buy car sight unseen. Well, I did have over a hundred high definition pictures and video. At this point the team got involved and made things happen. They hooked me up with delivery and gave me an option locally for wiring update. James made the final process of purchase and delivery easy. The car got delivered next day and it turned out better than I imagined! I am grateful to the team for such a wonderful experience- beginning to ending. The car resides at a nephew’s and will be the best surprise present ever for my husband. More

DO NOT USE JONATHON CLEVELAND or ADAM of Gateway Classic Cars I talked with Adam of Gateway about a month ago arranging to tow my 1963 Buick from Melbourne Beach to Lake Mary. I was on phone 3x with Ada Cars I talked with Adam of Gateway about a month ago arranging to tow my 1963 Buick from Melbourne Beach to Lake Mary. I was on phone 3x with Adam yesterday and texted him and JONATHON CLEVELAND yesterday at 3pm letting them know my car was on its way. When the car got there 2 hours later, m JONATHON CLEVELAND called and said the surface rust on car made it not suitable for sale?? What? He also said I have to tow it back to my place.. at my expense?? Your kidding me I will never use them and highly recommend you do not work with a company so terrible as to have me pay for tow to get car there... and then tow it back?? DO NOT TRUST THEM...

I don't usually right a review unless my experience is either way above or well below expectations, and in this case, I was blown away by the level of commitment to the purchase and delivery of my 68 Cama either way above or well below expectations, and in this case, I was blown away by the level of commitment to the purchase and delivery of my 68 Camaro. Thanks to Kevin Morse for taking such care in finding me exactly the car I was looking for. His attention to detail was extraordinary, off the charts professionalism and concern for the customer. Never felt rushed. And thanks to Ethan from Asap shipping, super efficient and easy to work with. Highly recommend these guys. I'm sure I'll be calling them again. More
