hey, i went to buy an 87rs today and I got maybe 5 blocks from the guys house when the wipers stopped working and I realized the car had actually died. the wipers dont work any more and none of the lights on the dash come on and it wont start... wont turn over its completely dead the headlights and dome light work fine but when u turn the key theres nothing im guessing its probably a fuse or its grounding somewhere its got a brand new battery too.

im 17 and this was gonna be my first car which I was going to work on in the mechanics course im taking next year and I was really hopping to get this car. so any help would be appreciated.

thanks matt
