is this a good deal

i can get a trans am v8 305...5.0L.. i am not sure of the year but it has the gfx on it. so i think its like a 88 well around there. anyway the car has been sitting for a while now but the guy started it and it started right away, i could not test drive it though it has all flat tires. i brough him down for 1000 to 700$ canadian. oh and it has duel exhaust. the body has some rust marks and the driver side door makes a loud noise when i open it. it has 225000km on it.

right now i have a 84 firebird 2.8. what do u people think i should do??

sounds ok with a little work. sitting and not being used is hard on them. i'd change all the fluids and tune up parts, plus give it a good going over for any more things that need attention.

if the car has been sitting in the grass check under the floor pans for rust real good, grass will rust out a car quicker than dipping it in the ocean.
