$1500 for a V12, what better way is there to easily spend +$10k?

I wouldn't trust anything that came from The City on the Demise. You would be likely to find an actual crack pipe in it.

From what I hear you should buy the best example you can afford when it comes to these. Which likely means, spend more than $1500, lol.

I learned today that if it's rusted in a certain spot there is no sense doing anything buy using it for parts.

On the other hand... If it isn't and it's really that low mileage. Go for it! Quad headlights are so awesome. I also learned today the 5.3L non-HE engine responds well to mods.

If you have a bunch of time and money to throw at it, or a SBC sitting around in need of a home, then it's a fair price. I would never do it. Now if it was a convertible...

And that's assuming I can get to the car without getting shot or mugged.

Oh, I'm definitely NOT seriously thinking of purchasing any headache vehicles like this, definitely not while I'm still in college! That would be like committing seppuku on my bank account.

Haha, I totally want a convertible one of these.

I imagine for an SBC swap you may want the 91+ model with a 4L80E trans? Or doesn't matter because manual swap? Lol.

Yeah, lol then more to the point: NP, if it really does run well.
