I'm on the OP's purchase technique. The '82 PXN10 I should finish up tonight was the same story. From a blurry pic in a non-descript "Peugeot for sale $75" CL ad I was pretty sure it was a PX10. The seller responded and said there was a guy in front of me that was coming over later in the afternoon and he had promised the seller $50 sight unseen. I quickly sent an email back promising him over his asking price sight unseen. Got my response, got in the car. Bought it that morning.
