legaly, under new york state law, any private party vehical sale is AUTOMATICLY an “as-is” sale
it was also his responsibility to fully check the sled out before taking it home, and the fact that he took it in NON RUNNING condition just makes your case stronger
also, the damage he complains about is obviously in a hard to access place … its not like theres a piece of the cylinder head missing … he has no right to assume that you knew about it
and i think that because he picked it up here, he would have to take you to a buffalo small claims court (could be wrong, check on this) so it could easily wind up being a pain in the ass for him to take you to court

When was the sale though? because NY also has a law that you have 3 days to back out of a contract, including a sale. I had his problem once before, I baught a car and I did not realize it had some shit wrong with it, bad shit. I took it to my mechanic for inspection and he said the car will no way pass, had a bad axle in the back and a few other things, unfortunatly it was too late y then and I had to take the loss. But yeah, he has up to 3 days from the time of purchase to get his $ back to my knowlege.
