ok well its hard to tell dude without pics or if no one is there to actually see it in person.

[*c-town*]

if u want it given him a lower offer say $1000 but only if its worth it

[duster117]

one more thing i forgot to say

i got on the boost 3 times when i drove it
the first 2 times it stalled but the 3rd it did not
the car has ben sitting for a long time! and it still started right up
witch is good

and about offering 1000 i dont think hell drop that far i might say 1300 maby

btw he says he thinks the oil leak is coming from where the distrebuter
goes in the motor. he said something about an o-ring. dues any one know what
he means

it seems like it may be a good deal? 5-sd or auto tranny???
oil leak is minimal, just replace the oring w/ a toyota dealer oring, not a aftermarket oring. It could be laking through the shaft also, but hard to say without piks.. have it checked for a head gasket leak also.. its a common problem unfortinately..

yep, get a block test done to check for bad hg & do a compression check... at least you'll know if the motor is reasonably good

the o-ring is what seals the cps/dizzy in the head.. it will be old and plastic now so won't be doing a hell of a lot and will leak oil onto the exhaust manifold.. get an oem replacement and you'll be sweet

good luck with the car and post some pics
