Default Buying a 1976 Coupe, things to look for?

1976 Eldorado Coupe, 66,000 miles.

Car is cosmetically excellent.

Issues:
Brakes seem soft. They stop the car, they're just really soft. Wondering if that's a hydroboost problem.

Oil leak - might be a rear main seal.

Shocks - shocks look shot.

No idea if the timing chain has been replaced.

A/C is not working.

Ballpark estimate for repairs of the above looks to be around $1800.


Are there any other things I should be looking for?

I'll have to look in the old car catalog!

You can take a look at the Ford LTD! It is a very beautiful and huge two-door, stunning in all its power and looks. I'm selling one right now and thinking about the best state to buy a new car! Maybe you will be interested! The Ford LTD was built according to the old classic rear-wheel drive and frame car scheme. Equipped with a line of motors, all V8 engines with capacities from 5.8 to 7.5 liters with 160 hp to 240 hp, respectively, and an obligatory three-speed automatic, which is excellent reliability and survivability. Ford LTD is a very nimble and fast car, holds the road very well, and you do not get tired while driving, as the car has power steering and brakes and is very comfortable to drive.
