BUY IT! DRIVE IT! LOVE IT! That's a great deal. Its probably worth $1000 in its current condtion. I saw one at a dealer a while back. Had 280k on it and he still wanted $2300 for it. They are great cars and have a LSD so no slip! As for fixing it. I'll try to help as much as possible but I'm much better with the EA81 rather than the EA82. You'll want to check out this site and forum. Everyone is VERY helpful and friendly. Just don't tell them how much ya paid for it!
