My friend with a boat wants to trade with you. And my co-worker with a horsey also wants in.

$200/mile @ 400 miles. Now leaking coolant from the left radiator. Still fun to drive! New radiator and heater core in the works.

Did the dash light go off or did you spot it on your own?

Nice! I just replaced my left radiator this weekend, easy-peasy. Looked like mine took one too many low speed bumps in it's life time. Man, the bottom of my bumper cover is sooooo ugly...

+1 on the bottom of the bumper being ugly. The previous owner must have pulled some real speed racer moves!
