Going up to see it on Sunday. Man, another project I still have not finished my 96, I wanded to upgrade brakes and suspension. If this car is in original condition and in decent shape it will be hard to walk away from.

No luck, I drove to look it over. Even my wife said "that was quick" There was not a straight pannel on the car, most of the body lines where miss matched like the damaged pannels had aready been off and on. It looks like the poor thing has had bad repairs for most of it life. I am not up for a total project like that.

The search continues......

And lemme guess, it was advertised as being in "excellent condition" except for the oil pressure thing?

Thats my bad, he listed it as "T-tops don't leak" "no rust" and "nice interior" with the original engine in it I assumed I was going to look at a solid car. I think I might lower my sites to a V6. They seem to be selling for next to nothing.

I would imagine that would fall out of the price range I am looking for.

I started my search cause I was buying some part for my older daughters sunfire. The guy had a real nice 92 in his drive way. He said he had just bought it for $500 it had a locked up 3.1. He was droping a big HP motor in it but I figured if I could find one and do the 3.4 upgrade bottom end it would make for a nice car. This Z28 got me a little side tracked.
