Although a good looking car (I'm partial to yellow and I think Midstates has a nice body appearance) I think $45k is too much for the car unless it's the nicest, most sorted out Midstates ever built. Judging from the pictures that probably isn't likely. That is about the very bottom of the ERA market and unless your only goal is 750HP (and if the car really makes that - doubtful) waiting for an ERA would be a better buy for that money or a few thousand more. If the car looks good close up and drives well and the dealer were to get serious in the low to mid $30k range, then it might be OK. I agree with some in the earlier post on this car, that the dash is probably not a tough fix.
