delivered it's previous owner to the airport this morning and then got
filled up with gas, which we'll call "taking possession". She swallowed
close enough to 70 litres and 120 nz dollars.
With the previous owner on 90 mile beach (about 90km, but who's counting...):

As with any car that didn't just roll off the showroom floor, and anything
French or from GM or Dodge, there's a few things that need sorting:
- Rattle on exhaust
- Taped up shifter handle
- High idle in neutral (wire/switch for neutral not working)
- Right mirror floppy - have spare from caravan
- Grubby and dirty on the outside
- Needs more low/stiff/shocks to match 17 feel
- Audio is horrible, rip out or upgrade to something nicer
- Left indicator lense UV damaged
- Left headlight looks yellow - remove and clean glass
- Trans cooler cable tied to chrome grill
- Coolant overflow bottle needs a thorough clean
- Coolant hoses are on backwards/in the wrong place
- Possible small oil leak onto exhaust (manifold?)
- Wheels could do with lips fixed and self-balancing/truing done and/or tyres balanced.
- Lower it
- Stereo it
- Fix wheels
- Just cruise
- Some sort of engine swap, 3+ litre, low boost, cruiser style
- G80 diff installation and associated wild donuts and drifts
who's bound to say: "You're an idiot!" As might everyone else, I guess :-D
