why does the 98 have the 95 grill? and only 24k miles must mean engine replacement, or rollback. to detect rollback, look at the odometer if it says total : than the mileage, there is no rollback. If it doesn't say total: there is a rollback. also look at the tires, seats etc. if there in bad shape that could also mean engine replacement. it is possible that it may only have 24k. but why would they sell so cheap? if your going to make a 3500 investment shell out the 9 bucks for the carfax, or tell them to show you a carfax

Well anyways, the seat looked like it had 100k but I'm not gonna rant, I just walked away, the place was shady! All the cars were wrecked, or f'ed up.
