And you're in carolina to ? So the body is probably clean as hell..Even if you find out the motor is shot or something like that you could sell the parts off of it and make a big profit..For $50 you have nothing to lose.

I would say though do a basic tuneup and maybe convert to mpfi sometime down the line..

Well the body is allright has one dent in the door about the size of a base ball it didn't run when i got it. It just needed a head gasket and i done a tune up. before i put the head on i ported and polished it myself and i ported the intake. When i bought it it had some coil overs on it and short throw shifter and a new clutch. All had 0 miles he bought all this stuff and put it on instead of fixing the car. What i dummy. I just want to know what i can do like in proformance on the cheep. Any help would be nice
