Hey guys it would be my first FB and i went and test drove it and it was awesome..... no power steering though

it also has a small crack in the dash.....it even has original tires......

Whisper

Find out how often it was driven. I hope it didn't sit for years at a time.

And original tires is not a good thing. 27 year old rubber is going to fail, whether driven on or not.

i'd be all over that.... but yeah it'll need tires and probably a couple other things if you start driving it daily, cars are usually stored improperly

you don't need power steering in these cars, effort is lighter than some p/s cars ive had.

yeah the tires seem sketch

i drove it and i think he said it sat for a while but it drove super nice and seems to be strong, started right up

it has collector plates so i dont think its driven often

Sounds like a great deal, I'd go for it!

Whisper

Yeah, it's not a bad deal, as long as it was driven from time to time, to keep the components from going bad.

Very clean 7, looks great. Check the usual rust spots, if it has bin rust, knock 1k off of it, otherwise I'd shoot for abound 2800.

Also the brake light stays on in the dash and the brake fluid is fine...... he said the brake master cylinder might need replaced but the brakes seemed fine the way i drive (like a grandma)
are these easy to get ahold of?

master cylinders can be had for less than $50 from parts stores. about $90 from Mazda. 3K is a great deal for what the car is. i'd be all over that if it were near me.

dash brake light stays on? check rear brake lights. they are easier to replace than a master cylinder.

jpieps

I too would go for it if I had enough $$$.

look under the storeage bins for rust.

So, now the question begs to be asked. Did you pull the trigger and buy it?

Directfreak

iTrader: (2)

It's because of the Low Fluid Sensor in the Master Cylinder.
Needs to be topped off and/or replaced.

Very Nice Find! My Favorite Color!

Compared it to this $4000 hunk of junk that doesnt even include the engine or gearbox.

Yours is a bargain

speedracer_not

A burned out rear brake light can also give a dash brake light warning.
