Got it from the nephew of the original owner. Even got the original bill of sale, warranty and a bunch of service records. The car is in pretty good shape and drives real nice. It really doesn't need that much work overall, but there are a couple things I want to get squared away soon.
First of all the gas gauge and instrument panel lights don't work. Being a motorcyclist I am used to not having a gas gauge and using the odometer but it annoys me that the gauge doesn't work. Also I don't think the temp gauge works either but I didn't pay close attention, I only drove it about 10 miles home since picking it up. I looked at the fuses all look fine except the first 3 amp fuse (which I believe is the instrument panel fuse) looks suspect. I can't see a break but the wire looks bent and maybe burnt. Anyway, I'll go get some new fuses and replace that one and see what happens. If that doesn't fix the gas gauge and instrument lights, what do I do next?
