It looks worse than the first car I imported and decided to sell for parts
There are a lot fewer cars on craiglist than a year back, I would talk to Mike about sourcing a car SacCyclone on here. He could inspect and ship a car, that way you know what you are getting into. I met Mike in person, he knows his stuff.
the only 2 cars near him are 2+2s

They are cheap enough and not so far for Mike, that said Mike might have stock. Need to add $2K to ship it, Import duty is low 5% but you have to pay to get it off the boat
2 seater in LA, might be too far for Mike to look at, risky buying blind!

The first car I got a workmate to look at (bad decision), second I purchased blind but they took a load of pictures as I had learnt off the first car + when I met Mike he had said he had seen the car I eventually purchased but thought it was overpriced. I got it cheaper + a free Mike inspection! (sorry Mike) it is a very sound car needing dogleg and a bit of inner wing a 2+2 have on the rear.
I don't know if this helps or not
