Hello, new to the forums. Don't currently own a 3rd gen but am on the hunt for on Proving to be difficult to find in CA!

Welcome to the group! Be patient, one will come up. The worst thing you can do is jump on the first thing that comes available! Good luck on the search!

thanks ! Trying to find decent one for max 11k

Welcome! Where are you located?

Lots of info here once you find your 3rd gen.

crescent city ca . Does this look normal? Looking at this 3rd gen and this area looks a bit odd to me

hard to tell, but it just looks crusty to me….

i haven’t seen in person but the seller says it grease. I’m not sure what even part that is underneath but it looked odd

looks like the pitman arm to center link

does that look concerning or Normal?

it is most likely grease build up covered in road grime.

thanks. Here’s some other pics of the car underneath

Looks to be pretty clean from what you can see, just some surface rust which isn’t a big issue.

Did you get it. also dont forget you may also have to get it smog got mine smog today they check the cat converter and other things good luck. : )

Hang in there man. I did a ton of looking and found this 91' RS in Vacaville for $10,500 (bought it for 9,800). The guy I bought it from just had it repainted. From what I saw, alot of 3rd gens in NorCal were either project cars with tons of things half done and kinda half assed looking or 'original' ones that are in poor condition from general neglect, but are pretty cheap (some less than 5k).

That's a nice RS, love that color!!
That's all you see here in So-Cal, either project cars, hacked up cars, or "original" cars that need a bunch of work. The bad thing is you would think you can get one of these cars for under $5K, but everyone has them posted for like $7-9K. The ones that don't need a lot of work are in the $10K range. I'm not sure if any of these actually sell or not.

Are you looking on FB Marketplace?

Looks pretty good, also good to have the 9 bolt rear end with disc brakes. That's a Z28.

Good luck with your search
