Should I buy it?

Mattd76 · January 7th, 2009, 03:33 PM

I found an 88 GT for sale for $2000. From the pictures I have seen the exterior is in pretty good shape. There is no carpet because the current owner ripped it all out. If it runs good and strong should I pick it up? I will post pics later on so you all can see them.

Make sure there's no rust on the underside of the doors and hatch.. check the torque boxes for damage and look along the roof lines for any stress cracks in the body.

other then that if she shifts good, doesn't over heat it's worth it in my opinion
