This is a Beater car it has many small dents, dings, rust spots and paint peeling. It runs wel, the engine is solid and I've never had a problem starting. The car does need new shocks & struts as well as a ball joint on the front suspension, this job was quoted to me by AAMCO for $850. Maybe you can find a better deal or fix it yourself. Overall its been reliable for me but it needs these repair to be driven safely. The hood lock is broken so the hood is held in place by a steel S hook. Again this is a beat up car, good cheap local transportation.
