Thanks Dave. He said he drove the car home 30 miles and the smoking stopped shortly during the trip. I guess that 4 years of not being started may have had something to do with it. He said there were no records. It is supposed to have 113K miles (at least showing that), so at this mileage, new chain is in order I assume? I asked him how quiet the engine was, because in the "timing chain" thread, I have heard that they will make a noise. He said it was very quiet and smooth. I guess the first order would be changing all of the fluids and fix that power steering hose- if it is indeed the hose.

The cosmetics do not bother me that much, I can live with the dents and cracks in the dash. It is a light colored car, so I should be able to live without the A/C. Even on my cars with working A/C, I rarely use it, because it really does a number on my nose (stuffed up), so I live with the heat.
