Re: [DML] Advice on buying!

["Payne" <bpayne@xxxx>]

I bought mine for a daily driver and it has 60,000 miles on it. It was nice
to have a little more mileage on the car because I knew a lot of things had
been replaced and a few updates were already done. Plus it didn't have the
fuel system gummed up from years of sitting in a garage. I'm sure some
owners will debate me on this, so just remember that every single D you find
will be in a somewhat different state of restoration, or none at all. Just
look the car over closely before you buy it, and try to find the history.
