Thinking about buying a MK3 Supra

MeatRo · 05-15-2008, 08:20 AM

Well, I shot the guy an offer for $600. Hopefully he can do that, I also sourced the parts. I'm really strapped for cash right now, so the metal head gasket is out the window. I'll have to just throw in a good ol' AutoZone Beck Arnley head gasket and some ARP studs. Grand total of $185. I know it's not great to cheap out on things like this, but I just can't afford the machine work or downtime right now.

I hope I get it, really need a reliable ride right now and I'm actually having to sell parts from my project car (1991 Volvo 740SE) if I'm going to get this thing. Oh well, the only parts I'm selling is the conversion for a Mustang T5 transmission, which I'm really kicking myself in the ass (and glad at the same time) for paying near $2,000 for since I found out there's also a swap out there to throw the R154 into the Volvo.
