Default Had my 82CE on the lift

I went down to the shop that works on all my cars(the stuff I can't do)He put it on the lift so I could get a good look-see.I am very pleased to say the least.The car only has 38,000 miles but the underside looks brand new.No rust,no leaks or evidence of any the past.The rear suspension is beautiful.Just wanted to share.

- It feels even better when you can do this prior to purchasing a car!

You are right sharkattack.I did look under it before I bought it but didn't put it on a lift.I felt comfortable enough to pull the trigger.I knew the car had spent all it's life in the south and very well taken care of and maintained.Sometimes you just gotta go for it.Now if I could only find a panther pink challenger TA in as good of condition.

My 82 was a SoCal car and was extrememely clean underneath.

The interior on the other hand was shot. Made it much easier to justify the conversion to black anyways!!!

It is nice to get a good look at the car up on a lift. You see things so much better than crawling under it on your back!!
