Thread: Top swapping

about 45 minutes away, the guy is being short with me, wont tell me if any engine lights are on, wont tell me what the rockers look like, he did say no leaks. thats all. he just said come check it out..... i dont know what to think

also little problems means the price will need to come down.

45 minutes is worth it if it needs a little work. if you go, check the rockers and the strut towers in the trunk.

depends on your mechanical knowhow. if it feels like a bad deal then it probably is.

awesome, thanks so much! i greatly appreciate it!

alright, any specific things to look out for? besides the obvious tranny slip, motor knock, etc.

IMO you should go check out that red GTP too. Lower mileage doesn't always mean better condition. I've seen 200,000 mile GTP's that were cleaner and had less rust than 80,000 mile ones. The only thing you really need to worry about in a higher mileage car is worn out engine parts. But parts are cheap for GP's. I'd rather have to replace some engine parts on a high mileage but clean body car, than have a solid low mile motor in a rusted out POS. At least from the pictures I can see, the red GTP looks very well taken care of for 150,000 miles.
