Difficulty reading dipstick.

Good morning, I am still in the market, and after much looking, I have come to the determination that I am in the middle of a mid life crisis and I need a toy. I am looking at a relative inexpensive toy, however, so when this disease is cured, I will not be out a whole lot. That said, I have seen one Porsche 944 and will be looking at another today. The first, needs lots of cosmetic work, but engine appears to be solid (no signs of oil leaks), as does the front end. While driving it, I stopped, popped the hatch (and hood, etc). When I started moving again, there was a very loud howl that had me concerned. Thinking back, I wonder if it could have been because I moved the air deflector on the sun roof and the entire car resonated. Hmm, any thoughts would be appreciated. Second car, looks great in the pictures (will see more today I hope). The owner says it has a slight front end shake at 50 mph (concern #1) and it leaks oil (or it could burn oil... concern #2). I am going to try to see if I can see where the oil is coming from. Any ideas (common to this car, seals, oil pan (could I be that lucky?) ). Any thoughts, concerns would be greatly appreciated.

My brother has a problem with his '93 Dodge Caravan (6 cyl). Starting last night, when he turns on the high beams, the headlights go out completely. Any suggestions? ¡Gracias!
