Are you just looking for tips/advice on what to look at for the purchase, or also for the performance/handling aspects?
EDIT: Check to see if...
the diff. rivets were replaced with the bolt kit yet.
there is still one of those nasty hydraulic front motor mounts
If you can PM me the VIN number I can give you all the factory info (what factory it was made at, and those goodies.)
Yes, I'm asking what to look at for the purchase. Not so much performance/handling, as the suspension is going to be totally replaced and the motor is going to be left alone, at least for now.
Are the diff rivets something I need to get under the car to check?
