I was the one in line to buy it after you. You got a good deal. Is it as nice as it looks? I ended up going to washington and bringing a manual swapped wagon back.

Aw... Sorry, man! I put a down payment on it which I was super nervous about doing. It had been sitting for two years and needed a bunch of work (as they all do). But overall, for a Phoenix car it is in pretty good shape, especially the interior. I have done a timing overhaul, tires, PCV, vac lines, fuel injectors, filter, full tune-up, and a tranny flush so far.

Glad it made it someone who will take care of it and not just drive it into the ground.
