Here's a good one. I've agreed (and already paid $350 for ) a '79 wagon which has among other things an almost new steering rack, and a newish compressor. Also came with a brand spanking new rear quarter panel. Trouble is, when I go to pick it up...The wagon, she won't engage into gear, any gear. Now mind you I haven't test driven her yet (as she has a shot fan clutch, and until now, no battery). However I agreed to put out the cash upon the soothing reasurance from the kind owner that the wagon was "just driven yesterday and ran like a champ". What can I say, I trust people at their word. The "former" owner sez that the wagon will go into gear after warming up for awhile. I didn't warm her up too much, I'll admit. The question: Is the fan clutch problem related to the non engagement. And if not...is the tranny shot, or possibly something else??? I just don't want to pay for a tow, which is only a scant seven blocks! As always, thanks.
