Bought this 91 TA last night!
I found this 91 TA about 45 minutes from my house. Went and looked at it last night and bought it. It runs and drives GREAT, everything works (including AC), body has no rust or door dings and is perfect except for the front bumper and hood. The interior is a 7 out of 10, and has new tires. The guy I bought it from was really and had taken very good care of it until it was in a accident and he decided to get rid of it. Paid 1K for it! What does everybody think.
Now I need to find a front bumper for it! That should be a treat!

Not bad for the money. Just a hood and some paint and you are done.

YUP! that would be the one. It looks a lot better in person than it does in the photos on craigs list. The guy that had it is a real upstanding guy and described it to a T on the phone before I sent and looked at it. No suprises and just as he described.

UPDATE! 4-26-09
This weekend we were able to get this car fixed and painted. We painted it back the same color with a little blue/green pearl in the clear.
Here is a few pics.
