Evaporator issues. Needs a head gasket (oil leaks) and possibly rebuild the head (brass, not bronze valve guides). The rear subframe mounts may need rebuilt (rust) May need all new bushings or control arms too. It would have to be thoroughly inspected. Possible transmission issues too.

Seller wasn't home when I stopped. Overall looks nice enough, but some rust at front jack points. Interior is sort of a chocolate brown (tobacco?). Dash and seats looked good through the window.
