[DML] Re: DMC in Rochester, New York

["corry bailey" <spddemon@xxxx>]

Hey, It was kind of funny seeing this posting, I will be in Rochester
this weekend. I will be in the downtown area on gibbs street down
close to the xerox building. As as I can tell you about the car is to
look over the car as good as you can and ask as many questions that
come to your mind. The car can be a great vehicle as long as it has
been taken care of. The basics are to check the frame for rust. This
seems to be a big problem and I am sure in Rochester this could be a
serious problem. The last I heard a new frame went for about $8000. 
Ask about the mileage. Most cars have had a problem with the odometer
breaking but most owners will be honest about this. You should be able
to tell if the car has been taken care of properly. Just treat it like
any pre-owned vehicle. The parts are readily available through
restoration facilities. A lot of the engine components match volvo
parts. Let me know whats going on this weekend. I am not sure what
amount of time I would have but I would be glad to take a look at the
car. Good Luck.
