it looks like it's all there. It has a K&N air filter, which isn't too much of a worry because you do not have a MAF sitting under it with a platinum wire; still the stock (orange) unti is better for our cars.
Also, it looks like tons of deferred maintanence. Fuel lines, vac lines, clamps hoses etc. Can't really diagnose something like this from photos. It does have the jump post cover - a plus.

Car is being delivered this weekend (but I won't see it until I come back from the west coast next month). I'll start a new thread when I get the chance to look her over.

Thanks again to all who posted their insight so that I could make an informed buying decision! MUCH appreciated.

Think of all the bugs I could have attached to it enroute at warp speed.....

Have fun, and take your time. You got a good starter there.

P.S. Love your screen name and may the beast you just acquired be as reliable a steed. You could call your wife Sancha if she starts rolling her eyes, or Dulcinea when she's loving and supportive. Buena suerte, senor. Disfruta.
