I went and looked at it. It starts but definitely has head gasket issues. No lower end noises that I could detect. It is a 1 owner car with 45K on it, owner has all records, service receipts, etc.
It turns out the guy selling it for his dad, is someone that is an acquaintance of mine through work .... so he is fairly trustworthy.
The engine is the 3.8 'essex' V6 w/auto trans. I know these had issues w/head gaskets, but what else?
I've found the common probs with this trans, but what else?
I'm pretty sure I can score it for $5-600, and worst case, fix and flip it .... or drive the wheels off of it ....
