Viewing this Mk1 Eunos - Any advice?

[Pulse]

A bit late in posting this, but someone may reply!

I'm going to look at this Mk1 today - http://www.mx5nutz.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1...

Does anyone have any advice of what to look for? It is supposedly pretty much rust-free, but what else should I be looking for? I'd be taking it with standard suspension, wheels, gear knob, etc. Oh, and he wants £850.

Thanks for any help.

Looks like a potentially good buy. Check all over for rot,id be checking with a fine tooth come where he has rolled the arches as that's a great way to induce rust. Feel with your fingers up in the lip or the arch all around.
Check the hood out.

And finally it might be a short nose crank model (Google it), check the pulley for any movement and count the slots if you can.

Well? What was it like? Did you buy it?

Sorry, never replied to this. It was... OK.

I was going to buy it quite cheap, but I decided it just wasn't looked after well enough for me to bother.
