-2 new tires in rear, very good fronts. Alignment correct and recent

Engine does not leak oil - new oil pan and gasket, valve cover gaskets, intake gaskets, timing cover gaskets AND Head gaskets! Engine barely uses 1 quart of oil in 3,000 miles.
BAD
-Windshield is cracked
-Dash pad is cracked
-Cd player (aftermarket) does not work, however radio and aux input works
-Mast for power antenna bad - motor is good
-Tailgate window is slow to operate (properly lubed up regulator).
-Rust - rockers, body
-Will not pass emissions - equipment removed (air pump, lines, etc).
Overall...
Car is fantastic - it drives very well. It handles well. It stops well. The car has been a great "work horse". It's gone all over eastern half of the united states - with recent trip up and back to Maryland from SC returning with a brake lathe, tools and other equipment - safe to say - it was well loaded down!!! It did the trip with the AC on, doing 19MPG!!! It's not a great looking vehicle, but is a solid, reliable, vehicle that could be used immediately - it truly could go to California and back no problem.
