Thanks Dave but the auction is over tonight around 9:00 I think...The only thing that scares me is that the guy has only sold a couple cars on Ebay....and has one negative comment so he realy doesn't have a track record.....I'm not in any hurry to find one the lake is still froze over here! But this one looked pretty clean.

If you do take a look at it; pull the peck-cock out of the radiiator before you drive it, and see what kind of crud falls out with some of the AF as well. This will give you an indication of the cooling system, and look for any graphite looking particles, as this is indication of that stop-leak crap they stick in to temp fix a blow head gasket.

E-bay Purchasers beware
I just received this a few minures ago.

This afternoon I, and other ebay users, received an email appearing to be
from ebay asking to click on the link and update financial information.

DO NOT DO THIS!!

The page you're directed to looks like ebay, but check the URL - clearly NOT
ebay. And, you'll see that you don't have to sign in first - you're just
asked for all your password, cc#, bank account numbers, SS#, etc. Once this
is done, the person who sent the email to you has complete access to
everything you entered.

If you get this, forward it (with all headers intact) to:
