Drove this today, 1988, 79k 5sp Targa top. No evidence of blown head gasket. A few paint chips, normal for a 19 year old with that kind of miles. No rust. Maintenance records in the car show clutch and timing belt replaced within the last 15k miles. Tires are yokohama's with lots of tread left Interior is in good shape, but very dated. Out the door price was 7k with paint chips airbrushed.
Is that way too much?
Im still thinking of an LS1, it would be at least 10 years newer, a more modern interior, more hp stock, probably cheaper to mod. The MKIII handles better than my old Z28 did. One thing I'm worried about on the MKIII is repairs. The LS1 would get better gas mileage.
Any thoughts or opinions appreciated.
