Is anyone near Longwood Florida? I found a car I may want to purchase. If anyone is reasonably close I may ask that they check the car out for me. TIA.

If you are REALLY interested, have swapped photos, etc, and just need someone to have a good look at it, I may be able to go. It's ~1.5 hrs away.

Thanks for the offer Mark, I may take you up on it. BTW, this is not a TR. I am thinking of getting this as a DD so I can tear Donna's car back down and get better MPG.

The jacket looks better than the one Sylvan suggested but I still do not like it.
