don't buy it.

the description says nothing of oil seal leaks and suspension issues. it doesn't sound like it was maintained and history is everything when you're dealing with cars of this vintage. unless you're inclined to do the work yourself, and depending on whether you like to have stuff like switches, windows, heater fans, hood release cables, defrost, seats, etc. work like they are supposed to, you're probably looking at between $1500-2000 to get it running right. plus, coming from massachusetts it'll have rust issues, most likely.

i'd run, but that's just my opinion.

i'f you were to make an offer, $500.
