Hey guys,
I had a 89 765ti, and currently have a 70 1800e. I'm currently looking for a new car. Two options are 98 c70 HP , and a 850r.
As with any car they all have their little thinkgs to look for. On the c70, which things do i need to look out for (80k) other than regular things on regular cars. And the 850?
How can i tell if the c70 has the sports pakage on it(what did that include). How is the insurance on these compared to a s70? Did the c70's come with LSD? ANY info at all would be great!

thanks guy!

    Gene,
    You know how hard it is to get parts for an 1800, well, it is harder to get parts for a C70. The sport package is just shorter springs and larger wheels. I always thought LSD was something you had to buy at the pier in Duluth! Convertable season up in the North Country is pretty short and dealers always want a premium for them even if the demand isn't there. Shop carefully and slowly to get what you want. Call your insurance person for quotes, it is too dependent on age to answer on this web site.
