Default Newbie Here!!

Hey everyone. I recently just purchased a '95 850 sedan 5 spd. Im used to working on older Oldsmobile cars and I have never owned a car like this before, but I had a good feeling about this car. It has around 300,000 miles but I am not positive because the odometer stopped working around 18 months ago so he kinda guessed on the mileage. It still runs and looks great for how many miles are on it. So far the only things I found wrong with the car is oil leaks, I think the swaybar endlink has seen better days, heated seats dont work, and needs a new caliper in the back. Those are just minor things, but as long as it still runs strong, I am happy.

I also was wondering why they made the radio so easy to take out?? I have never seen anything like that before, makes it pretty easy to steal.

Here are some pics of it,

Welcome
Yes the radio easy to get out but you need a security code if you disconnect it to make it work again.
