Re: 1996 SVX on Autotrader

Howdy all,
I test drove a green '96 in Shoreline that is advertised in the Autotrader. It ran nicely, there was a little pulsation from the front rotors and no noticeable noise from the rear wheel bearings, BUTTT... The doors don't fit nicely and the trunk
moldings aren't fitted very well and this leads me to believe that the car has had some major body work. It is my opinion that if the doors could be made to fit correctly the dealer would have surely done this. Also the Carfax shows about
100,000 more miles than the dealer claims and the odometer reflects. I just can't risk the possibility that some shenanigans are going on.
My daughter is driving my red '96 LSi and my sons white '92 LSL was just stolen in Spokane. So He is looking and I am looking. We will also be looking for a parts car.

Chip.
