88 sunbird turbo beater?
 

i found one locally pretty cheap, and im thinking of picking it up while i tear my laser apart since the trans is on its way out anyway and i have to drive over an hour to school soon. I was wondering what experience if any you guys might have had with this thing and if the motor is strong at all

if its just a beater car, why do you care what the internals are like?

Re:88 sunbird turbo beater?
 

because i like buying cars with a little potential for fun ;) anyway i think i found a cheap 90 civic hatch :-*

Re:88 sunbird turbo beater?

Re:88 sunbird turbo beater?

Re:88 sunbird turbo beater?
