Thanks Matt. It sounds like standard issue "old car" problems, such as, rust and major mechanical failures, are the things to keep an eye on. I have a couple of old Classics (Detroit Iron - 1966 Olds Delta 88 with 90K miles on it and a 1965 Olds Delta project)and am familiar with many of the associated problems. The 142E seems to be a good choice to add to my fleet. If it is in good shape I will pick it up and post some pictures. Oh, as far as stock "ugly" colours...I read it on this forum..."If it is orange, buy it, because there aren't enough orange cars on the road anymore..." I concurr with all other "ugly" hues!
