He said there were more and said it had a new front end suspension. Rubber is excellent. He said whatever they said it needed was done. He took it in every 3K miles for an oil change. Oh, it has a new windshield.

There are some issues including the airbag light, sagging liner, driver's seat needs minor repair, steering wheel leather is loose at the top of the wheel and is a bit torn up, trunk shelf (functional still, but a bit chewed) and a few scrapes and dents. He is shipping me a new p/s mirror since it was broken after we saw the car.

The boys are thrilled. DMV is closed until Tues so they could not drive today, but they washed and waxed it. Tomorrow they tackle the interior.

Here is a shot after washing. The light was not great after the wax job so more tomorrow.

Car looks great! get a fog-light delete plate or fill those holes with the fogs. There is a DIY in the appropriate section
