Reliability & ownership notes
- Verify the VIN engine code, transmission, emissions label, body, and build date before ordering parts; shared displacement does not establish the induction system or service application.
- Inspect cooling, fuel and ignition systems, hatch or convertible seals, electrical accessories, collision repair, corrosion, and modification quality on any survivor.
