Default Grandview, WA 944 For Sale (P.O.S)

This car was on Ebay at $3250 but did not sell,

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...216210769&rd=1

I talked with the dealer and to make a long story short the dealer would take $2750 for it so I decided to make the 2 hour trip (with cash).

Here is my mini PPI,

Needs,

Motor Mounts (shakes bad at idle)
Head Gasket (Milkshake in the oil cap & it is Running at 3/4 temp mark)
Down on HP
Clutch felt really light
Repainted, fender was shaking and prior front end accident
Heater Core (always blows hot air)
Side bolster has been repaired (not great)
Tires
Brakes (Dealer stated they are 30% left but they felt ok)
Running Rich and did not sound that great.

It did have some service history but I did not look threw it. Does not have LSD. It sounds like the sales guys have taken it home and beat on it.

Thing is busted! Worth like a thousand bucks...maybe less...because it looks nice.
