Braver than me. Glad you made it.

How did you find it?
Was this an EBay or Craigslist purchase?
Mike,
This was an ebay purchase, which in any case, is a leap of faith. This is my fourth car that I've bought out of state and (knock on wood) no problems yet. I've asked enough questions I guess, made sure of seller's feedback, and know what I'm buying. I emailed and called seller to get a feel for the vehicle and in all cases the cars where better than described. Do I feel lucky? Sure, but it worked out. I saw that you're in NC, I live in Greensboro.
