The double roller timing chain that came out in mid-83 is a plus. The earlier single roller chain is the one that tends to explode & if you are lucky, you only bend 2 vaves.
If you are in the States, you need to know that the the 126 body 380's were all grey market cars.

Anything that starts to get expensive after a certain number of miles? How miserable of mileage do these beasts get? I see them pop up from time to time and am curious. Thanks...
