We had our renowned mechanic go over this car and he corrected the few basics that were needed so it was ready for us to drive basically (flush & test cooling system, flush & bleed brake system, clean the fuel lines and one fuel pump, replace spark plugs etc)
I have noticed a recent slow transmission leak.
