Trueno, where in LI NY are you located? when you buy these kind of cars you must do the following:
- check compression
- leaks -( Oil pan- very common on 7's, AC lines.. even though its 15k miles)
- does it carry a aftermarket boost gauge? if so whats the vacuum reading?
- test drive the car and see if suspension is still ok
- Control switches for windows, mirrors also check the antenna motor if its still working.
- then do a carfax report.
