Deal of the Century!

I am in the process of restoring/modifying my '82 GSL, and find replacement parts for this like suspension bushings, wiring, and little odds and ends in general.

Well today I found a 1985 GSL-SE with mint black cloth interior, recently rebuilt diff., aftermarket front air damn, and new struts. And the icing on the cake, for me, is a factory hood with a molded in, early model, 300ZX hood scoop that is cut out underneath so it feeds straight onto the air filter intake.

Quess how much? the whole car is good except the engine doesn't turn over.

100 dollars, that's right, I got the deal of the century. My car is going to be running like a champ in no time.

Ah, I didn't get that close of a look at the engine, it's partially disasembled in a attempt to fix it, but he said all the parts are there. Depending on what I decide to do I might just give it to you.

It also could be considered gray. I don't know anymore, your filling my mind with doubt, it looked black.
