Thanks, I had just brought this one home a few days ago.

The previous owner was good to it. I really haven't dug into it yet, but I think I want to do the SAS delete, And probably drop the rear drive shafts to refurbish them. Or leave them out?

It does look good inside and out. New tires, brakes. Non smoking vehicle, Although I sometimes smoke when I drive. (not anywhere else these days. Strange.)

Anyway, I have not driven it enough yet to sufficiently diagnose all of its issues. I had decided to trailer it home when feeling a fuel starvation. The tank was overfilled and I think it may have caused a vapor lock of some sort.

I plan on siphoning maybe 5 gallons or so and moving from there.
I do like it though.
It seems to play well with the other kids in the driveway.

One more gratuitous photo. I do have a black car under cover.
