1997 T/A Convertible, auto trans, Ram Air hood, BBK headers, Magnaflow 3.5 exhaust straight through, no muffler, just a resonator.

It needs paint, a new top, tail lights, and a broken valve spring.?

I got it dirt cheap, $3000, the guy HOA wanted it gone asap, or they were going to tow it out of there.

He sold his condo and left the car with a friend there to sell.

He wanted $5000, so I waited a week and got it for the $3K.

Not a bad price.

I don't know if the straight-through exhaust will be a problem for the State inspection.

Will you keep or fix and turn it over for a profit?

No state inspection in FL.

Going to keep it, have the whole top end off, replacing LOTS of parts.

Just spend about $800 in parts so far.
