After 1 year and 4 months its mine. We went to DMV and did the lost title and title transfer. Its mine, a fair price was agreed upon wasnt 50 thousand but wasnt cheap either. I was able to drive it today it went about 6 miles. It didnt over heat and after fixing all vacuum leaks the trans shifts fine. I am going to put a temporary gauge to see how hot it is running. It was overheating but seemed to be ok today

Weird that is has the gas gauge cluster from the tic-tock-tach though. Lots of nice details in the pics!

The price you quoted new sounds too low. I can only assume it was what they paid after trade-in.

The H/O is on the road. Exhaust being installed on monday. Took to friends forever humane society car show. With only a good wash not even a waxing yet. It took a top 64 plaque out of about 180 cars runs and drives great.
