I almost bought one that looked exactly like this one! It had been sitting for sale for about a month. I finally went and talked to the woman (cant remember why she was selling it) and she gave me the keys, with the warning, "its insured but the plates have expired, so if you get a ticket its your fault".
I took it on a little test drive, called the insurance company for a quote and took it to the bank for an idea on financing. Everything was in order. I was on my way to take it back, figured since I was going to drive it fast, I might as well get on it and see what it had. The light turned green, the tires let out a little chirp (not at redline, I didnt own it yet!) and off it went. I shifted to second and heard the most God awful noise. I returned it to her about 30 minutes after I took it, and told her that I was unable to get finacing. 
As for my first car, it looked like this but was primer grey and had chrome trim around the headlights and the grille. BTW, this image lies, that car was slower then anything, even my slant-6 `74 Dodge pickup that I got next!
