Winter Car
How many miles? Those are pretty solid cars (cept for rust or course) I assume your looking at a 5 speed car, old honda autos seem to break a lot, I've seen quite a few of them in the gas station for repair.

I've had two late-'80s fwd Cutlasses, and have driven them through hellish blizzards. The one I have now (the mighty Snowstainer) I once used to bust door-handle level drifts and blaze a path into my old job's unplowed parking lot. Tranny leak be damned, it's a great car.
Right now it's in front of my house, unlocked, the key stuck in the ignition, with a sign on the window:
"DON'T STEAL - NO BRAKES" until I get another $20 caliper on it.
