So what do you guys think?

95 Talon TSi fwd (119.500 miles)

Bought for 3600$ (Body in excellent shape, engine bay looks clean, suspension/bottom has no rust either)

Invested: 2700$

New brake pads/rotors (all wheels)
New oil/plugs
New ball joint
Rebuilt half-shaft
New sway bar link kits
New A/C belt
New alternator and P/S belt
New crank pulley/harmonic balancer
New timing belt
New water pump
New balancer belt
New tires

To do:
New wheel bearing
Rear struts
Exhaust gasket

and hopefully that would be it for a while...
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Maybe a crankwalk test too, 7bolt = teh gay sauce
And if you do rear struts, you may as well do the front ones too.
