So I figured while I was out and about the other day I'd stop by his place and ask if he'd like to sell it. He laughed and said actually yes I would. He got a new car and is wanting to sell this now. So it was good timing\fate I guess that I stopped by. He said he was not in a hurry and would hold it until I get my Accord sold. I think my accord should sell pretty quick around here.

I love the grey/extra cab look. If it was taken care of I think I could deal with the autotragic transmission. Also, the suspension looks to be in really good shape too. I say get it.

Yep that's what we are learning right now. He changed the oil pretty much by himself last night on the old mustang. I just loosened everything for him.

Looks like it's in great shape. Won't know for sure until you pop the hood and take it for a spin. Good luck!
