I'm at it again. to buy or not to buy, that is the question..

[trufanatic]

Found an 87 mk3, white on burgandy, 5spd, targa.

Good: none really

Bad: needs interior carpet, needs two front seats, needs all interior panels put back together but they're all there, needs a new windshield, top right corner of the windshield has some rust. tail lights needs to be put back in but they're there. Head was partially pulled apart to put in new cams but wasnt put back together but everything is there.

For 300$ what do you guys think? owner says he also has a t70 turbo new in the box that he got with the car, never used. it needs a ton of love to say the least.

OR

Just get the shell together and go 1JZ?:evil2:

Even for 3 I wouldn't touch it, I got a running driving supra for 350 that needed a hatch. I would pass

 

[trufanatic]

i kinda agree, there is absolutely too much work to be done and if there ends up being stuff missing, its probably gonna be more money than i would like to spend hunting for parts. Maybe if the interior was all there, i would deal with all the other stuff.

exterior parts aren't nearly as expensive as interior... hence why I bought my car with body damage because the interior was nearly spotless.

 

[trufanatic]

i kno a junk car with 3 complete mk3's sitting right now that why i was kinda on the fence about getting it.

 

[Koenigturbo]

the turbo alone is worth $300 isn't it??

 

[Racer-X]

Too much. I´d keep my hands off it. In the end it´ll be more work + more money involved in that one instead of getting a running car.

 

[ValgeKotkas]

Wouldn't the running supra for that money need about exactly the same restorations as this one? I mean in the end...

 

[Racer-X]

No...

 

[Poodles]

Pics of said supra...

Hell, you can sell it to a scrap yard for more than that...

 

[Moy]

buy it for the $300 and part it out for a profit :evil2:

 

[Racer-X]

buy it for the $300 and part it out for a profit :evil2:

That would be a good option!

 

[funky_monkey58]

I would buy it no questions asked. I bought one for 200 that was pretty beat down and everyone said part it. So I fixed it up ended up being a great car.

Where is the car located? I went to look for one and ended up buying a nice runner for $650 The intake system just has to be put back together which I'm almost done with. I say pass it one needs to much work
