Sounds like a good deal to me...should be awhile before the head gasket goes hopefully. If everythings nice, ex. the paint, tires, wheels, and theres no rust...you got a damn good deal.

Just get a new cluster if it is the prongs in the back of the cluster that are cracked. If that's the case you should go ahead and get one with a tach while you're at it. 1800 is a little steap for a 96 though. Blue book price is only around 6 or 700. Talk her down to a grand. That would be a good deal.

You must have found a high blue book. I would not pay any more than 1500 for a 96. Espically one that has been sitting for 3 years. 3 years of sitting will dry rot a lot of hoses........
