323 fastback
hi there i was wondering if someone could help me with this before i go and pick this car up tomorro.
im swapping my 306 for a 323 and the guy im swapping with told me the rear shock has gone on the 323 as it makes a clonking noise from the rear when he goes over bumps.
i basically just want to make sure it is the problem with the car that hes saying?
are these known for rear shock failure or are they prone to it being something else.
thanks in advance for any help. i love the look of the old 323 and if it is just the shock then i cant wait to get my hands on the car.
 
It is probably just the rear struts being worn out. There are some suspension arms back there that can wear out as well to look at but my money is on the struts.
