That would be fun to haul the kids arond in. No pics of interior though. May be trashed.

Wow. That's crazy cheap. If I could find something like locally I'd own a rally-x car.

Nice. While they are rare the manual wagons are not impossible to find. I have a v12 sitting in my driveway that while 10 years older than this car should mostly plug right in...

What's the chances it's not the clutch but the clutch hydraulics?

with 230000 miles, probably low. put it in first and twist the key, you'll find out. I'm sure you could tell by the feel of the clutch pedal too.

patgizz, are you local? How would you feel about storing it for a month if you've got the space?

Thanks for the thought. I reached out to Bravenrace, too, but he's going through some heavy stuff with his mother right now . Poor guy.
