Im looking at buying a 1986 GXL and the interior is perfect. Its a 5sp thats been sitting for about 2 years now and there's only one spot you can tell signs of rust. It has a sport suspension package, and the tires only have 100 miles on them.
Heres the problem, the engine blew an apex seal and needs a rebuild. The guy is going to sell me the car with a custom strait pipe exhaust for $350 should i do it?

 

Yep.

 

yup

Just woundering how much do you think the car is worth, or how much would you pay for it?

 

I might pay $350 for it. I don't like buying S4's unless they are turbos. I've got a couple motors I'll let you buy for really cheap. That is if you either want to pick it up or pay for shipping.

 

I was talking to the guy from banzai racing and he said he could do a full aftermarket rebuild for $1300. that encludes teflon parts so i will probibally just let him rebuild the engine.

So is spending a total of $1650 for a car with a rebuilt engine, and custom exhaust worth it? How much could i sell if for when im done?

 

have you not looked at the For Sale section?

 

Why would you want to get rid of the car after you rebuild it? Keep it and have fun man! And yes, I would get it.

 

yup thats a good deal for that

 

Buy it or die!!!!! J/K I doubt that you'll regret it.

 

im not planning on selling it i will keep it if i can, but i am headed to college so the car will have to be at my rents house and the only way i would sell it is if it was forced.

Why does it have to stay at your parents house if you go to college? I know plenty of people that live on campus and own cars..

 

well the cars not running right now and i dont feel like pushing my project car all the way to college, but my house is only an hour away from college and i have my own garage that i can keep it in at my house
