Garage
lots of questions to ask. If it hasn't been rebuilt properly, it will need to be (pulled head studs). And if there aren't written records of the rebuilt, assume it hasn't been done. Also, you'll need to check carefully for rust, as the 74s weren't fully galvanized. You'd also need to see it in person as pictures lie..but the seats look to be sagging for a car with only "50K original miles".

I'd question how well the flairs were installed and why they put a Carrera emblem on it. Otherwise, looks ok.

The Carrera script is even in the wrong place! Too high for a non-tail car (ignoring the fact that this isn't a Carrera). That driver seat cushion is shot.

I looked at that car. It's not as nice as it looks in the pictures...not even close.

The poor thing is a 30 year old $5,000 car - give it some slack.
