AT Garage, I come to thee. I haven't posted much at all lately - been insanely busy with the battery business. Which is going spectacularly - a nice segue to the purpose of this post.
Wow, lots of new names in here. Anyway, I am thinking about picking this car up for my Dad for his 70th birthday, coming up here in a couple of months. Going to look at it tomorrow.
According to the owner, it was restored about 15yrs ago. Original matching ser# I6, automatic. Rear drivers side window has a crack, and the bumpers have some minor pitting - says he mentioned it only in case I expect show quality.
I'm completely new to the world of classic cars. Besides a magnet, what should I bring?
Obviously all the standard used car stuff.. but I am sure there are some big "gotchas" with a classic like this.
Like many seemingly great ideas, I have to wonder what I've gotten myself into with this one....
Oh, and of course, pics:
