MY B-DAY PRESENT!!!! 88 SE ! Pics inside
Well today is my b-day Dec 23.... and I picked up my bday present. Its a 88 SE with 130k on odo and there seems to be a "F" stamp on the front rotor... Get me if im wrong doesnt that mean it has recieved a rebuild.... So I am guessing it has less then that...Lots or work is planned for this beauty ... Its my first car and IM BUILDING IT !!! How many people can say that! Im open to feedback so post your feedback on it. I payed 925 and I have all the pieces for the engine and interior I just have installed it all yet.Heres the pics of after and before :

I can't believe you payed $900 for that.
Sorry but you payed too much. Even if it came with all of the parts required to fix it, unless it has a fresh rebuild, its not worth 900. Nice car regardless. You will enjoy it quite a bit. Rebuilding it will teach you more than you could ever imagine learning on the forum. Good luck.

Find someone local with a second gen that's all together. You'll want an example you can refer back to when you don't know how the pieces fit together. Or you could visit a junkyard and take one of their cars apart in your spare time - taking things apart is the best way to know how they go back together.

The body looks good. You have a nice amount of work ahead of you. Do you know what the previous owner was going to use the car for? Race car maybe? Get the factory service manual and the chilton or hayes manual for this project. Looks like the engine wiring harness was cut, so I hope you got another one somewhere. $900 bux is alot of money if you live in southern cali. We can find complete cars for $100+ dollars Congrats with the purchase and hopefully you'll be done with the car sooner than later.
ps.
Junkyards are your best friend for reference and parts.
