seems to be in real good nick.
no body damage, no interior damage.
slight rattle from engine (i think its the aluminium around the exhaust manifold) and a slight leak from the exhaust manifold.
apart from that, no smoke, rings seem fine, ideals fine.
is $4000 about right?

yeah well when petrol prices rise, oil supplies are lowering each year. fossil fueld cars are becoming extinct. Electric cars or Diesel engines will reign over the petrol engines in the future......oh and by diesel i mean diesel engines running on biodiesel not petroleum diesel.

anyways back on topic.......for what u paid its damn cheap =D good on u for the find

Yeah, but the V8's still get better money. Kms don't really matter that much with these models. Obviously lower is better, but you don't get the same 200k sell or bust that you get with some other models...
