Default 95, V10

I have a chance to buy a 95 2500 w/ V10 and 107000 miles for 2K. It was a repo. Anyways as is common in alaska it has front end damage. Hood grill and bumper need replaced. Also looks like upper radiator support and radiator will need replacing also. I can get the hood, bumper and grill for free from a donor vehicle that was wrecked in the back. But I have never owned a v10 and have no idea what problem areas to look for. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Default RE: 95, V10

as far as what i've read since i've owned mine, first thing you want to do regardless of the condition of the vehicle is probably replace all 10 injectors. everywhere i read people are having injector problems that causes rough running and misfires.
alignment on the front end...
umm, that's all i can think of, maybe someone else will chime in (i doubt it, the v10 seems to be a black sheep )

the main problems with the V10 are the cat.s, theyll need replacing after not so many miles,, and also the only fuel filter is in the fuel pump and the entire thing must be replaced to change it out,, which means dropping the tank,,,,, but there pretty tough and can take about any kinda punishment
