I'd be happy to look at it for you. I'm no mechanic, and I would suggest that if it looks good, you have a mechanic perform a PPI. My mechanic is within 10 miles of North Hollywood. Let me know if I can help you.

i think it needs a PPI regardless, but if you seriously want one of us to look at it let us know, being that its on Ebay i doubt you will have time to get a ppi due to time constraints and if your not a real serious buyer then let us know that too.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1988-...QQcmdZViewItem It ends I think Sunday night. Its in two other threads here, somebody said the owner is Socal 928 I think on this forum. This is the second time on ebay, week or so ago somebody ran the auction up to the reserve and then retracted their bid.

Ryan,
I have an appointment in Cherry Valley at noon, and if you want, I can look at it with you on my way back. I'll call the seller and see if the car will be available to see today, then I'll call you and let you know.
