The top one I couldn't make out, but the "92" isn't a 92 and I would go no more than 1000

Offer $800 for a take it or leave it offer. The car may have other problems and if you can't test drive it, who knows. For other problems, such as rust, it is a nothern car 18 yrs old.

One thing I would check is how many past owners were there. This can give you a idea of it's condition (lo tof owners = poor maintanence).

Id stay away from the head gasket case. A head gasket usually doesn't fail from age, they fail from improper installation or overheating. There could also be a mess of internal damage.....coolant in the oil can result in spun crank bearings.....

thanks for the comments. I was speaking with the owner and he said the rims didnt come with it either so i was thinking around 700 cash take it or leave it but ill have to see it in person before i make that decision.
