I realize that the owner is asking big bucks, when really the car probably worth less than 1/2 of the suggested price. I'll wait a few weeks & then give her a call again. The car has been for sale since Dec/01 & she seemed to be anxious to get rid of it. I guess if they can't get it started thats when I'll really have to decide if I want to "gamble" a bit.

Thanks for your input!
