I'm still trying to get more info from the owner.

If I don't get some soon I'll drop it. You would think someone selling a car would want to tell you about it.

I was thinking if I could steal it for $300-400 it would be worth it.

I don't know if this model is subject to the wire harness issues and head gasket.

I'm a pretty good DIY. I continue to keep my 62 Land Rover running and have replaced the engine, rebuilt the trans, brakes, clutch, swivel pins, most of the front body (deer at 60mph)

Is there any one in Northern Detroit that would possibly look but not buy?

Will keep you posted
