she looks pristine from the outside, and thats almost always a good sign that the car was taken care of. ask for any documentation on repairs/maintinance(cant spell)/etc. and go for a drive. there really arent any overall MAJOR problems with those cars. hell, for 900 bucks it would be worth it even if you only get a few thousand miles out of it, lol. i say go for it.

actually, it was ok. however, we got in and it just *reeked* of mold and such. I believe the sunroof seal had a wicked leak in it and, well, no. I could fix the leak... but cleaning the upholstery? Not so much.

uggh mold is HARD to get rid of completely quickly. your looking at striping down the entire interior and then start the cleaning / disinfecting and treating the areas. if it had a trashed carpet and you wanted to spend the money to replace it then shoot not a bad deal, but otherwise idk if id go for it.

could be a nice project car. I picked up a cherry 95 gst with a blown engine for $700 I picked up a engine for $500 just started her the first time last week.
You should get it. give him a low ball price talking about the smell/mold. Then what you save buying the car pay a detail shop to treat the carpet.
carpet kits are like 150 on ebay too.
We will build you bigger and stronger
Wake up and drive my ass... More like wake up and fix it.
