Nothing to see here.
$5000 for a 91 TII with 87k miles on it. Everything perfect, including compression.
First thing I did? Drove it to Kevin Landers and rebuilt and streetported the engine and ported the wastegate.

$ 3,300 for an 88 FC3C with 65K miles. Car had been hit on driver's door and stored. Replacement door looked to be in good shape. Had car 10 months now. No unusual problems.

Besides the normal ebay/thepartstrader/autotrader/the forum where else you guys look for cars?? Im in the process of looking for a TII that needs some work and just wondered where you guys found yours.

BTW, spending the same amount of money, what would look better, a different color or a very similar color to the original one? Any difference?
Thanks

I paid around $4500 for mine. I know, I know I paid to much. But it had a rebuilt motor, new paint job, and other little custom things: cd changer built into the bins, cross drilled rotors, and side markers. It came in good condition. The main prob. was an exhaust leak, but I put an exhaust system on it right away so I knew it wouldn't matter.

2800 for an 88 'vert with 190,000 miles in good condition (cracked radio surround, a few VERY minor chips in paint, and seats need reupholstering)... I'm not sure if its been rebuilt or not... I'm assuming that it hasn't, but cant afford the rebuild now, so I'm hoping the engine will last until I can afford it... I was thinking about swapping for a TII when it goes, but not completely decided on that yet...

No spoiler and non painted side strips here. Thats arctic silver.Oh and I paid $1300 for mine with a "bad water seals." Just needed a radiator and water pump actually. It got a Fluidyne and OEM water pump and was good to go. Now the engine is apart getting rebuilt/ported.
