Been watching for a car the last couple months, on Samba, CL, EBay and here. Just saw this one, and it at first blush looks like a steal. Would like to know your thoughts.

I'm hoping to see it this afternoon. Will take pics if I do. (Ad follows)

Pursuant to advice from TC and Curt, I've removed the link for now. I posted for advice, and got it :-)

TC, I thought about that, but I don't think there's a lot of locals here on this board. I thought feedback from this group was more valuable than the incremental risk.
