buying a 1988 LS, advice?

[seancornelis]

So as I'm filling up my dad's van at the gas station today I notice an '88 Integra LS 2 door...go over to look at it and it's the guy at the station selling it. Not a bad looking car, dings here and there (it comes from Brooklyn), 170k miles, 5-speed, power sunroof, blahlbah. The A/C doesn't work and it needs a muffler, there also appears to be a minor head gasket leak. He wants $950 for it, is that a fair price? Felt REAL solid when I drove it, much quicker than I expected, no squeeks or rattles, drove straight, brakes felt perfect, etc.

Anyone know how much it'll cost to do the A/C? I'm anticipating a very hot summer, so I'll need it.

I guess $950 seems ok for that. The A/C is going to run alot....maybe $400-500 to get it to work. Good luck on it if you buy it.

Not to sound anit-rice but you could always pick up a decent running camaro for the same price............

Yeah Like he says dude for the amount of money you end up putting in that rice rocket you can do the same with a domestic and rape big time. But it's up to you :bandit:
