A few questions concerning MA70 Wed, 22 June 2005 06:36 Go to previous message
Hey guys...

Was driving along to day, and spotted my much beloved type of car...
MA70 Supra...
It was parked on a persons lawn, but I couldn't get in contact with anyone right there and then (I have a number to ring later)
I did a bit of a walk around the car checking bits and pieces...
Now:
Rego 22 Dec 2005... (6 months rego... Decent)
Now, it has a piece of rust, around about the size of a Nokia 8210 (Think around 1 - 1.5inches, by about 3 inches) in the front of the passenger door... It is NOT surface rust, but fairly decent rust in it...
There is a bit of a chip on the drivers side that does have SURFACE rust in it...

The inside isn't the tidiest I've seen (But not too bad the seats and all for it's age)
The gearstick boot is worn pretty badly and falling away
Same with the hand brake

I have since found out (halfway through making this post the owner rang) that the suspension is all new, the 7M-GE motor has been reconditioned and is still under warranty and that the high beams have a bit of a problem with them...
The front bar on drivers side has a "scrape" on it right on the corner, looks like a run in with a gate entering a property...
It needs a new front left tyre (passenger side)
Paint is decent, (but was VERY dirty when I was there)

The owner is asking $5500 (hasn't been advertised yet) and I'm thinking it is a slightly steep price for a 7M-GE 5 speed with the interior in the condition it is in...

Now, I'm just wondering if there are any problems or things to check across the range of MA70s when looking...
This one is dead standard...

I might be ducking out at around 5:30 to look at it, but I'm unsure, I might have to organise another day...

I just need to know some things to check on it...

The lady did say the suspension and motor is new (sits quite well actually *standard height* and doesn't "droop" like the ones with old suspension)

So what sorts of things should I be checking out?
Price seems steep for me, and I also don't believe I could get up the $5500 for it that she is asking...
I'm thinking more at around $2500 - $3000 (ALOT of people have been advertising them at $4000 and having BIG problems selling them (7M-GE ones...)

Just need a bit of help...

Matt
