$200 dollors for an GSL-SE
I have a chance to buy a 1984 SE. bodys good & straight. inside is clean, the owner says the last time it was driven it got real hot and then parked it. for the last 4-5 years thinking he fried it. Now i know about heat and these cars (engines) He reminds me of the kind of person who would drive a car into the ground. I'm thinking if he were to let me try to get it running to see if he did fry it. but i feel if i were to do that he would change his mind about saleing it to me. C'mon guys i need a push !! can you imagine a running SE for $ 200.00 dollors ?
Buy the SE for $200, tow it away. At your house make it run. If it dont run, swap all the goodies out of it (suspension), or build a turbo car out of it!
Thats what i'd do if i had money.

$200 for even a non-running -SE is an awesome deal I think if the body and interior are good. My friend payed $500 for an -SE with a blown engine, so I think $200 would be great.

Hi there Manntis, I havent seen you around sine I heard about your accident (Not that I hang around the 1st gen forum alot..) Anyway, I just wanted to express my condolences , I know how bad it sucks to lose a car, much less one as irreplacable as yours. Glad you are ok though.

Manntis, i would rather you have that SE, you know.
get back on the horse. Rent a trailer, bring at least
$500.00 dollors and get that sucker. it's not going anywhere fast. I've got a rx7 already. The reason i say $ 500.00 dollors is just to be safe..

this guy from the track bought an 85 GSLSE for $200 bucks also. the guy who owned it before him took the car to a local mechanic when it was acting up and was told he needed a new engine. Phil bought it and messed with some **** in his garage (cannot remember what actually was wrong), and it runs great. perfect exterior and interior. and fairly low miles also.
