Message	The advertisement said that it was pearl white, tan leather interior in perfect shape with 104K miles on it. Drove 2 hours to check out the car to find that just about every body panel was a different shade, looked like someone hit it with a baseball bat in the right rear quarter, and the interior was falling apart. Suspension was shot and tires were showing cord. Odometer showed like 104,xxx miles. For kicks, I drove it down the road and opened the glovebox. The guy was asking 6K for it and there was a receipt in the glovebox for the purchase of the car. He bought it for $5300 and the bill stated that it had 183K miles on it. Some people apparently dont understand what the term "clean car" really means. Goes without question that I didn't buy it. Keep looking though - good ones are out there; it just takes time to find them. [ ashspecz.com ] [ agpowers@bellsouth.net ] Enthusiasts soon understand each other. --W. Irving. Are you an enthusiast?
