This guy live down the road from me and I asked him to send me a few pics of his rig. As you can see he has listed a whole lot of mods, but seems kinda cheap to me. I spoke with him yesterday and he said he bought it off ebay on a low bid he didn't think he would win. He went out to Cali to get it and ended up getting another with a 454 in it. Buying things off ebay, especially modded like this, worries me. I could do without all the stereo equipment for sure, but I like the engine. I asked if he got it inspected before he bought it and he didn't. He said from what he understood the guy that built the engine builds engines for dragsters. The other guy was a stereo guy. I thought it might be a good deal, but I will for sure have it inspected. What should I have the tech focus on? and is it worth it without a soft top or hard top? Also he posted no rust....then said small amount of rust. I hope the diamond plate isn't covering any up. Thanks
