Apollo, what nice cars the coupes are!
I'd love to have one also.



Check the rear axle-half boots. They are rubber
and ribbed (black) If they are cracked or split, that will cost some to replace the axle-halves.
Alot of times the steering wheel lock begins to
get tricky. Find out if their have been
regular incidents of the ignition key not turning
because the steering wheel could not be moved enough to
unlock the mechanism. Good to replace the lock and tumbler
if needed because if it gets stuck, it can be expensive to
undo.
Check the air conditioning. If you don't need it and it is broken, just deduct from the price.
SERVICE RECORDS!!! look at them
Don't get scared. What a neat automobile.
Keep us posted.
Good Luck
