Thinks
-I'd look for radiator fins, see if they're bent up. If so the car probably had an aftermarket turbo, o2 Housing, etc. on it.
-Drive the car and listen for the T-Case and check all the gears, make sure there are no grinds.
-I'd even go the extra mile and pull the spark plugs to make sure there's no oil on them. Oil on the tips are a bad thing.
Other than that I'd do a basic inspection.
-Check brakes
-Check tires
-Check alignment
-Make sure all lights are working
-Check A/C and heat.
-Run CarFax.
