Cool My brother bought it

So the story is the current owner,Oscar, a gent in his early '80s, bought it in '97 from a Hong Kong businessman. He bought it new, along with a house in Vancouver, and visited Canada occasionally untill the Chinese take over in '97. He sold it to Oscar with only 20K miles, and Oscar only drove it once a week.
The car looked very good, no door dings ,just minor scratches and marks. The interior was perfect, no wear on the pedals or switches. Everything works , AC blows cold. It drove beautifully, like a brand new car.
My brother is going to take it to the indy that's been looking after it and ask about the chain and guide rails, they might have repaired that already. Oscar couldn't remember and also only found some recent repair bills. The others are around somewhere, he's going to look for them. Sure sucks getting old.
