I am looking for a boat and dont mind one that needs some fixing

I came across a 1997 Basscat pantera II and it floats and is all there and has a 1985 johnson motor and trailer.

He said it could need to be wired but it works fine. I would do that anyway as I would replace all the switches and lights

Carpet is good but it needs seats and seat post

It also comes with a 36v Motor guide bow mount trolling motor

With that said if I was to get it Would plan on a repower next year

I have always liked bass cat boats and this would be a good project for me and the kids

But my fear is its to good to be true as he wants $2500 OR BEST offer

Its over 4 hrs away so what should I be asking (In detail) before driving out there

Thanks
