Try this: Get the hood open and get uder there, look under the structural braces and all around the inner fenders and such for any sign of bodywork/welding. Perhaps this car was in a frontal collision? Run a CARFAX report (it's not free, but worth it!). I used to work with a guy who had a beautiful convertible Oldsmobile, that had all kinds of engine problems..come to find out, you could see fine welds and stress points all over the place under the hood and front end. Good luck!
