914 Wizard? No way. I got too much to learn. Group: Members Posts: 4,099 Joined: 21-April 03 From: Gig Harbor, WA Member No.: 598 |
Take an ice pick along when you look at the 73. If the guy knows his stuff he'll know why you have it. Don't use it, just listen to what he says. If he knows it's rusty he won't let you near it. That probably won't work on the 70.
Have the guys take the rocker covers off. If there is a bunch of dirt you know the car has been neglected and you should be skeptical. Also drive the cars and listen for transmission noise. growling is not good. Dave |
