Power Drop Shipper

I purchased a 1970 mustang fastback on e-bay. the seller stated
that the car was close to show condition. When the car arrived
here in San Diego it didn’t run. The lady at the shipping company
noted the problem and I had a friend bring his trailer when we
picked the car up. The car was shipped via a commercial shipper
the car was loaded on the hauler and was never taken off until
it arrived here in San Diego. I called the seller who stated that
the car ran fine when he took it to the shipper but he did state that
they took it there via trailer. I had a profesional shop check the
engine and they found out that the cam had three flat lobes. It
cost me $2,350.00 to have the engine removed cleaned bearing
replaced cam replaced and the engine put back in the car.
Unfortunately four months have gone by. I have been very ill and
the auto shop didn’t get the job done in a timely maner.

a. is there any recourse to get my money back for the repair.
