Looking at a 1995 Canadian 940 900

No Sunroof, non-turbo, no rust, no dents, interior will clean up nicely.

One of my biggest concerns is the AC. The compressor comes on quickly and the fan engages. It is hard to tell if it is cooled air with the outside temps around 50 degrees. The heater works well and quickly cools when AC is engaged. The compressor will spin and stop and spin and stop. What does that mean?

Also the rear main appears to be leaking. No way am I doing that so that's at least $600 to the guy in the shop. The Horn isn't working but I don't know why. I did check the number 15 fuse. Speedo and odometer not working.

I have had 1994 models for many years. Any specific concerns on the 1995? I noticed the absence of the accessible fuel pump. The headlites and grill are a little different, too.

This is not one of those garage-kept beauties for 5 to 8 thousand. It looks like a good foundation for a survivor for under $2000 even with the rear main expense.

Thanks for your thoughts on this
