Finding a driveshaft is not easy and very expensive to ship. Usually they get taken off because the bevel gear box crashed, also very expensive to fix. Keep looking for another car...

As for your 855, fix it up. It is a keeper. Tailgate struts are cheap, odo gear is $25, and you have onboard diagnostics! Oh, before you buy a new O2 sensor, make sure there are no air leaks between the throttle body and the air box - also check your vacuum lines.

Look in junk yards for a tailgate latch, the dealer wants about $250 for one.
