From now on, this is the type of deal I'd look for FIRST the next time I need to buy a car. I just had to say something, when I saw the price and remembering what I used to think about this level of car and price and what I think now, and how much closer to a real value I now realize something like this really is.
Bump for a super nice car and a reasonable price.

I know you said the engine had a complete going through and by looking at the rest of the car I have no doubts everything is there and straight, I just wanted to see how clean the engine area was since the going thru was complete thats all. BTW she is an absolute BEAUTY!
Thanks!
