trying to talk myself into another 3rd gen -free

91 3.1 auto, royal blue I guess, paint falling off in parts with exposed primer and surface rust. Leaks oil, coolant, and atf......leaks oil bad. Got t-tops anyway and new headliner in box. 124k miles if I heard the guy right. Not sure how hard it would be to fix leaks and sell, or maybe use as parts chaser for my 360k car. (would rather fix though).................. or LS swap? Not sure how bad I need another project here that I will have trouble getting to.

Re: trying to talk myself into another 3rd gen -free

Welp..... it's mine. Hasn't run in 4 years, so I'll probably unhook the fuel filter and run the pump to empty most of the tank, and replace the filter, and pump new fuel up to the rail. Already have a spare battery to put in. Once it's running I'll start seeing just where all it's leaking.
