Default Restore Del Sol

Picked her up today. It smokes like a **** when I press the gas more than half way, the radiator leaks coolant from some place, and it's got 164,000 miles on it. But has new timing belt, water pump, radiator. Interior is pretty good, there's rust at a few places outside. Exhaust is missing cat and leaks every 2 inches
