Thinking about getting a 68' 145S, what should I be thinking about 140-160 1968

DRJ, this is a "mature" car. If it was in good condition and had been maintained properly, you don't need to worry about durability or driveability at all. But at this age, its previous life means everything. These were sturdy and comfortable cars but I recall my wife's 1968 144s needed a lot of suspension work all the time. Her 144s had the 3-speed automatic transmission, which made it pretty anemic.
