Amen to that! I have about 6 months before I even get my liscense. and a steady 500 per month to dump into it. Sound possible?

save your money and put it toward the supra and your good to go. once you do get it fixed(assuming that you get it) save some money up and put it away just incase something would break, as it probably will

In the end only you can make the decision to buy it or leave it where ya found it. I can say this for sure, there were a few things I knew were wrong with my car when I bought it. It has shown a lot of other issues since I brought it home. I would think the same will be true with yours. Mine needs new brakes, radiator, hoses, seats and some other small things. At any time the head gasket could go, the starter or any other item. That’s just the way it is with a 20 year old car. If it’s got a good body and you want it then buy it. Just be advised that these things like to hide serious rust inside the rear wheel wells. I saw one of these cars in the JY that had all the interior plastic removed. I was surprised how bad the wheel well rust was and how hidden it can be. Look inside the wells not just at the lips. Also look behind the rear quarter plastic covers. You might be surprised what you find. Oh and don’t forget to check the spare tire well!!! You have to take out the tire but you must check this area.

Good Luck!!!
