So how many miles are on it since the motor was done?
Does he have all the receipts showing and confirming what was done?

Yep i would look at the realistics if you know the car is good deal and its got quite a few nice upgrades 6 cylinder or not your gunna be happy with it... gas is better if it was built correctly it should last you awhile ( if you take care of her ) and like previously stated insurance on a 6 is way cheaper then insurance on an 8 for males under the age of 25 ( assuming you fit in this cagtegory)

You may want to drive a 3.8 before you buy that. But the price seems fair.

If I had gone through the effort to take apart the transmission it would have gotten a basic clutch and band kit and V-8 plantary gear sets. Who takes a part a high mile tranny and does not put all new seals in it? I guess he looked at the seals and decided they where good? That would make him the best transmission mechanic on the planet.
