    Not a bad looking car, but does need a few things seen to. One thing they do not mention is the factory trailer towing package. It has a class III hitch on it, and if it was used for towing something that heavy without the towing package, things will break. Unfortunately, most people thought they could cobble a set of equipment for towing better than the factory. Trouble is, they spent more money and did not get all of the equipment. I'd be careful of it, or any other car with a hitch unless the car has the towing package and a good, solid maintenance history available.

    It's a terrible looking car in person. It's not in Lancaster, PA. it's in Lancaster NY. I went to look at it a couple weeks ago. It's beat. The door panels are shot, not all doors lock, duct tape all over, rusted, etc., etc....

    I had high hopes for it from the pictures, but in person it is in tough shape. Maybe a $900 car at best.

    This one has been for sale for a long time and had a fair amount of discussion before..... oddly re-painted quarters, along with mis-matched wood.....rear ended? Can't see how the pics would give high hopes for the asking price, let alone $900?
