Should i get it? (another FC)

This dude i know from work is selling his 87 N/A for 200 bucks cuz he doesent know how to fix the problems it has. I checked it out and its got an idle problem (of corse) and he says it smokes at high rpms. Other than that the car is pretty good the body is fine and theres not much rust.
Ive helped him out in the past so he says he wants to give me a chance to get it before he junks it and i really dont want to see another FC get junked.
By problem is that im currently working on my TII and have little to no money to spend on another FC and i have practically no where to put another car. I own 2 cars right now so you know. But i dont think i can pass this one up itd be a "project" car as they say.
Let me know what you think guys.

It would be a no loose situation. For $200.00 you could make money on just parting it out. Post a picture of it if you get it and I'm sure you will get your money back and then sum. I'm looking for some decent rims and a working Logicon.

One other problem though. He went spray paint happy in the interior and its pretty much ruined now. Theres a major loss of money right there.

True, but if you tear the engine down you should make it up.
$100 for the rotors
$100 for the housings.
$100 for the irons.
$100 for the intake.

It just goes on man...
