Another thing that should be somewhat obvious, is to ask someone (specifically for Superformance owners that are willing) to come along and inspect the one you are interested in. It's never a good idea IMO to go alone. At the very least, a good mechanic friend that at least knows the basic mechanics of 'any' car. Unless they stuffed a Wankel or Electric motor, any mechanic should at least be able to give it a once over for mechanical intergrity.

Now take a deep breath and remember: it's really just another used car and you should treat the transaction accordingly. It's already a given it's a unique car, but these really are simple machines, so mechanically, very similar to any 1960's car. You can walk away from the deal and not have buyers remorse. TAKE YOUR TIME.
