I would like to buy it, if the longs and hell hole are in good shape. Do you think it's driveable? Let me know. I can be there next weekend.

when i looked at it the battery tray was in it (surface rust)
the front and rear trunk was clean.and i pulled up the carpet in it and the floors was clean.i coudnt see behind the ecu to see the hell hole.but today when i get photos ill look under the car to see if i can see the long.as far as driving it it was driving great when they parked it.but its been sitting for about a year and half.its got a almost full tank of gas in it.(needs to be drained) and it needs a battery.they work at the same company only a few blocks from there they live.so they stoped driving it because they only really go to work.

Thanks, James.

Looking forward to the pics, and your impressions.

Brant, you are a gentleman. If for some reason I don't buy it, then I hope you or one of the other 914club members buys it. Let's see how it goes.
