Hey Mike, did you decide whether you are getting the RX or not?
I'm going to check it out again today. Then I'll make my final decision.

Mike

I say If it runs good, buy it, the turbo motor is worth more than the $100 bucks.....heck, the heads off it are worth more than $100..

I looked over the car again today, and spoke with a man at the body shop where it is located. He said he starts it regularly, and it runs very well. The car had the head gaskets, and valve cover gaskets done about 20,000 miles ago (according to the records at the dealer where I work.)

I called the owner, and we reached an agreement. I should be finalizing things on Thursday.

RX

Congrats on the RX Mike! Hopefully she will serve you well! Might I suggest getting it inspected at Pep Boys on Fruitville Pk if you run into issues with the rust. They overlooked an issue for me. I do have a friend who just got a welder so if you need some metal added I may be able to help out. Was cert. years ago in NC so I kinda know what I'm doing. Just don't ask for anything near the gas tank.

I may have to take you up on that, Ben. I'll keep you posted.
