Or in re-reading it, maybe I was confused because of how you put your

He claimed it was hard to find one like that, but hadn't tried to start it,
but that's all he claimed?
Whereupon when you got it you determined that it didn't start because it
had no fuel pump, ignition, or battery and had been in a flood to boot?
That makes more sense. Yes, I'd be pissed too..
