quick question. Im looking into buying a 1995 240sx. guy said ps and ac isnt working, not too concerned about the ac but the ps should I be worried about? how hard of a fix is this? and what should I go about doing to find the problem? Its in the va, richmond area if anyone would be willing to go with me to check it out.

Sounds like it could be a piece of crap. He doesn't want any more than that with a rebuilt engine? You didn't answer with any details, is it a 5 speed, rusty, lots of miles?

If it's in good condition it'll be a good deal.

quoted from an email for the guy "it is a base, one small rust spot on fender, guy told me top end was comletly built, miles on the car is 220k miles on rebuilt less than 2k think the powersteering just needs the bolt that goes in itand allows fluid to go through"any advice from that?

FYI, the "VIN checking services" watch car forums and will revoke subscriptions if they believe people are abusing the Terms Of Service.
