    Like i have always been told you get what you paid for $500 is a good deal you may have to dump a little more into it but if you do dumb about $1000 think about it you just paid $1500 for a 97 gt which is still a steal.... i paid $4500 for my GTP with 150xxx

    Well so far i've got 400 into the fuel pump. I can't believe these fuel pumps were so pricey( the junk yards wanted 280 for one so I said screw it i'll just buy a dealer unit. 500 into the trans. Trans still doesn't work right, they sold me the wrong wiring harness, but I don't even want to get into that, because I may just blow the car up thinking about it. Started it and yuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Coolant leaks cracked manifolds plugged cat (at least I hope) I know I took a chance on this car and I knew it had a bad fuel pump and trans when I bought it, but I didn't expect someone that actually owned one of these cars to totally neglect it as bad as this one was. I guess that just goes to show you appearence means nothing!

    wowsers. a bit of work ahead of you, but as others have said, for quality used parts, Ed Morad is the man! (morad parts company on ebay) or gtped@msn.com

    shoot depending on where you are from him, you could likey get a very very good deal on a whole drop out motor/trans and be good to go, man

    sell the parts you took out (that are OK) and you'll make back some of your investment.
