A Clean Carfax

By plugging the VIN for Tom's Riv into Carfax last night, I added $24.99 to the tab, but didn't find anything new. The report came back clean on accidents and damage, which I wasn't surprised by at all.
I had been hoping for some owner history, but the report didn't do anything beyond confirm Tom's purchase date. Those 7 "detailed records" are nothing more than title renewals.
I'll send the .htm file on request...just mail me here.

Among the posts to come will be a summary of my front-porch discussion with Tom about the Riv's history. It'll just take some time to get there.

Note to self: check the fuse panel to see if that explains the silent radio. Or maybe also the rear windows.

While on-line, I stopped by Team Buick to browse some threads. Found some great information, and some links to some good on-line parts sources: www.gmobsolete.com and www.autopartswarehouse.com.
