THE TIME HAS COME!my loan has gone through and I have found a good looking car. Check out the specs:

1991 Hatch LEBlack5 speedSunroofABS, power everything, leather interior, new alt, new water pump, VERY clean inside and out (no rust at all he says)

also he said it's got new tires, rims (some kind he didnt know), exhaust (also didnt know what), and an K&N filter. It's got 150,000 miles on it and a clean title.

Watcha guys think? When I check it out, can any of you think of specific things to look for?

Timing chain been done? With that mileage, I would assume so, but I would ask anyway. How much?

its about 600 dollars to fix the timing chain and if he didnt do that then he probably hasnt done any other scheduled maintenence. so that should knock off some money off the price huh? :) check for any creases in the frame under the hood especially and good luck
