    I remember seeing that car on eBay. As long as there is no major rust, four thousand is a good price on that car.

    Welcome from Florida.

    Looks like a nice car. I did notice that the rear stance might need looking at when you get the car. If it is elevated because someone put new leaf springs in it ... GREAT! If it is up like that due to air shocks or long spring shackles, you will want to address that with more standard parts. Air shocks or helper shocks might tear up the mounts. Long shackles don't do anything good for handling. Easy fixes either way.

    Looks like you got a keeper. Nice going!

    Welcome to the Forum!! I was watching that Mav on eBay and you got a great buy on the car. Don't know what it cost to ship it over there but you did right on car.
    Congrats
