Known Issues:

· Small cracks in dash (see photos), but overall the dash is in excellent condition.

· Cassette player is not working.

· Car is probably due for new brake rotors (pulls to the left a little bit when braking)

· Odometer works flawlessly during winter months, works off and on during warmer weather. This has been a weekend driver only for me since I have owned it and history of records leads me to believe that the miles on the odometer are not significantly off from true miles.
