Thumbs up + Almost have one +

After more than a year looking for something.....within my budget.
Here is the possible catch, it's going for a PPI on wednesday.
1984 black/black original color (respray) no accident.
New radiator, engine mount, comes with a cover, 10 CD changer and two sets of wheels.
Some teaser pics :

You HOPE they are! Trust me!

Nice car! The passenger side seat looks like its leather has been replaced- the leather doesn't follow the foam blocks underneath.

N!

So Dan...........assuming the PPI goes as well as the car looks how long before you pick up the beast? I was so excited when purchasing my car I had the money secured (permission from the SO) as soon as the shop were putting the final check marks on the PPI sheet.

Hope all goes well for you..........welcome to the club

Rotors are pretty cheap (~$80), so I wouldn't let that deter you. And new tires are almost always a given when buying a car.

Don't call them oil leaks. Just call it "seepage".

"Coment/advice/suggestion?"

It depends on the price of the car
