Should I know anything before I buy?? It needs new sincros in 2nd gear I will probably just buy the whole refresh/rebuild kit and do it myself. Nothing else seems to be wrong with it(other than the window switch but who cares). I havent had a 5.0 before so I am not 100% familiar with them. Is there anything I should look for?
Thanks

RUST, look for rust anywhere, especially the floorpans. If you know what torque boxes are make sure they are not tore. Id take a test drive and make sure it drives ok and doesnt leak oil.
