#1 this should not have to be stated but there WILL be rust issues under the fibreglass. NONE EVER puts fiberglass over good metal/ Why would you.
#2 having said that Mike we all know you won't find a real " rust free " car for these prioces. I fully expect to have to do some amount of rust repair. #3 Rusty how did the floor pans look? As stated abpove I fully expect to have to repair the H.H. on any car Mike gets and most probably the rear trunk as well. Solkid floors and longs would be a big plus point for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) #4 carry on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Scott, I am willing to pay more so you can work less (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I MAY have a deal tomorrow according to Ron. We will see....

Sorry about the one picture... I was channeling Andy. I felt a fierce urge to grab my combat boots and shave a mohawk into my head. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached image(s) |

Please note... I don't think this is a bad car... but any buyer should be aware of the challenges they may face in the future.
Also, I didn't do any leakdown or compression tests on the motor. Scott, I didn't think the floor pans looked too bad. I was especially interested in the area around the pedal cluster... but that didn't show any signs of a M/C leak. Clean and dry... and obviously had been that way for some time. The seller says he has a lift. (Probably in the side garage that stores his 75 Carrera with the 3.2.) Sadly, I was already almost two hours into the inspection... or I would have stayed and asked him to put it up for more pictures. |

I am not completely done with this car. I will think over my options based on what is presented to me tomorrow at my friends house. Scott has the final say in what I buy, though, since he is going to be doing the work.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not opposed to this one, I just want to point out anything I see so that you don't feel like you make a bad choice after the fact (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Nope, I hear ya man. The good thing is that I have a good rear end of my car that we can use for parts, one good floor, and a good front trunk floor. I also have good trunk hinges (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) If I had to I could use this car. My goal now is to not pay more than it is worth. Rusty had a good idea of taking a bus out there and driving it back. That would be cheap and suck less than driving out and towing it.

Ya, we take care of our own here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I couldnt have been more fortunate than to have Rusty there.
I had Zach check out one in York, PA. He brought a weak magnet, his own jack and jack stands (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) We ahve a lot of savvy people here. |
