Well, thanks for your advice, I've decided that I'm going to pass this one after a visit to the indy, and saw that the transmission was in need of an overhaul. If the transmission was fine, I probably would have it parked next to the SD tonight. I've gotten word of a 300DT for sale for less, and I prefer the DT and the US bumpers. Thanks for the advice anyway though.
