On May-13-13 at 22:22:07 PDT, seller added the following information: As of 5/13/13The car was inspected by a classic european shop called Burlingame Motor in Burlingame, CA. These are what we discovered. Rust:Minor surface rust on the bottom of the rockers. Rust on the bottom of the passenger fender under the paint. Electrical:Interior lights don't work.Turn signals don't work.Reverse lights don't work.License plate bulbs need to be put in. Motor:Did not do so well on compression test. When driven, the motor runs strong to the mechanic and he explained that it can be the piston rings being stuck because the car doesn't get driven.There's an oil leak possibly coming from the valve cover gasket. Will confirm tomorrow. Transmission:Everything is fine, however 2nd gear is starting to grind. This just started happening today, the synchro is going bad. Other notes:heater does not work.
