looking for a project car

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a car to work on this summer. I want to learn about cars, and my father is willing to help me. I would pay for everything myself. I am a student, and work part time so money is a huge issue. I found this near my house.

What do you guys think? Would it be worth trying to fix? I emailed the seller some questions. I think it would be worth my time is the engine isn't junk. Does anyone have any cars for sale. Thanks.

BTW. I live in Roscoe, IL.

Hmmm link doesnt seem to be working....Well as long as rust isnt bad on the car then its always worth buildin back up...A V6 to rebuilt all depends on personal preference. Almost all will tell you to swap a V8 into it but do what u want.

Projects are always fun and never ending so buy what u can cheap and do what u want to it...thats the beauty of projects Anyway Good luck with whatever u do

Welcome aboard

Jason

BTW, I'll also have an 87' Trans Am for sale in a few weeks.

Just finishing up putting the engine in it. It now has a 4 bolt 350 with a carb setup, and TH350 tranny.


Drop me a line if you'de like some photos.

I got a '92 RS with a 305 V8. Runs strong but needs body work and paint. Not sure what kind of a project you are looking for.
