General comments?
I purchased the car from the original owner in 1996.The car had 64000 miles. The A/C is ice cold still after all these miles. The engine and clutch are original. The starter is also original. I faithfully change the oil every 2000 miles. The car does not burn or leak oil and has never left me stranded. Rust is an issue, but it has been addressed.. I love this car and will run it hopefully over 300000 miles.
