First off I would like to say thanks for everyone in advance, I have just become a member of this forum because I have decided to go ahead and buy a 300 series diesel. I have looked at a couple, and ran across this one, compared to the other one that I looked at, this one is in MINT condition, it was beautifull. Everything posted in the following link lined right up. The maintence was kept up and properly recorded. The only bad thing I could find was that it had some blow-by, I removed the cylinder head cap, and let it sit there, and it jumped around a bit, this was after about thirty minutes of driving, there was also some light smoke coming out of it but it wasint bad. Please let me know what you think about this, we agreed to $4500, I was just wondering what you guys thought about that price, (with the blow-by) and also if the blow-by sounds bad? Again thanks in advance, I am really wanting to get this one, but I need to know what you guys think. Heres the ebay link to it...

It's an 82', things are going to happen eventually like replacing rubber components that have worn down. Other than that I think it's going to continue being a very solid and reliable car. Go for it, it looks great!!
