ya i know thats dealer speak for time to bend over with out lube it seems to run i started it up and everything works i dont belive what the dealer told me ethier lol. One of my better friends works there hes the one who turned me onto the stang. Anyway i ran a carfax report on it as well and it doesnt seem to have ever been in an accident or anything major like that.also there doesnt seem to be really any rust i can see on the car.On a diffrent note I have a interview lined up tommarow as well so if it goes well and i get the job hopefully i can just avoid this whole mess in the first place so will see. As far as the 1700 goes its alot of money to a person who doesnt have it. belive me when i say this though i know how older dodges are i know the tranny issues they have belive when i say it wasnt my first choice of cars.
