It's a nice looking car, and it can be hard to find a good one at that price on the east coast. Painted calipers and whatnot tell me that someone took care of it. The photos are a bit old though.

Bring a set of tools with you, and take off the passenger side rocker panel (the black piece along the bottom). That and under the battery will normally be the worse place on these cars.
