Hello!
My first post... I've been researching SC T-Birds and decided I have to have one. I've bought and sold a few cars, and believe I know all of the basics: checking fluids, identifying overspray, following behind the car to see if it drives straight or dog tracks, taking it on the highway as well as around town, getting it in the air to inspect the underside and brakes and what not... I saw my question asked somewhere, and the "canned" answer was to get a local club member to go check out the car as there are too many things to look for...
A. That's easier said than done,
B. It's a trust thing -I don't trust anybody that I don't know really well. Suppose I find a good deal on a clean SC only to have the person who checks it out with me end up buying it out from underneath me?!? That said, any known problem areas that could be identified would be appreciated. I'm going after a '95 5-Speed... Thanks & happy motoring!!!
