    Wayne was having a hard time deciding, My waterpump comments were made prior to him announcing the purchase of the car. I was attempting to explain the water pump dilemna he would be up against. Just seeing if he needed a scape goat, not to buy the car. I am pleased he pulled the trigger.
    Mission accomplished!!!!

    Being a man of my word I owe Wayne $100 in parts, no charge, no strings

    Still recommend Wayne hopping a flight, to where ever, unless the car was purchased considerably below market.

    Strongly recommend ! Wayne we all know how picky you are.
    This way no buyers remorse sets in.

    Get on a plane!

    Thanks again for your advice, Tom. Truth is, I have no free time between now and the end of the year. I have a strong recommendation from a well known and respected GTE owner who is very familiar with the car and I have the results of the PPI, which I am very satisfied with. I've also left myself plenty of room for surprises. Sometimes ya just gotta takes your chances.
