Before yall freak on the miles the car seems in very good shape,been driving it daily for a few months with no issues.

The event is 3 hours from home.

Thoughts?

I just picked this up today:
(IMG:http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o33/StanIROCZ/Trailer/DSC04350.jpg)

I called the guy 10 min after it was listed on CR and was at his house with a down payment within an hour.

I need to make another set of ramps to be able to get the car up and there might be a few other small tweaks otherwise it is turn-key.
