well, I found a perfect canidate today. In Middletown, CT...10 minutes from my house. Went to look at it and it's not too shabby.
95 Legacy L, AWD, ABS, 5 speed, AC, rear disk brakes, rear diff, red-ish, new tires, rear disks are rusty so it hasnt drove for a while, 125K miles, price on the window was $2500, but the store that had the car in the parking lot said the guy will take the first $2000 that comes along. Interior looks clean, CD player, and I popped the hood up and checked the color of the oil, fairly decent looking, rad fluid looks fresh, verified the ABS is there...and it's looking like a decent car.
If I get it, the the rotas come off the blue Subaru, and the wheels on the red one will go onto the blue one, and the wife is wanting another Jeep, so she might use the blue Suby for a trade-in... and I might lower the asking price on the CRX/Civic some to get rid of them and make some room.....
But I also want to buy a truck, so I can haul some crap...the neighbors truck is falling apart...so I'm scared to drive it anymore...
opinions?
