Default legend overheating

ok so i have a chance to get a 93 legend pretty cheap, to make a long story short

-it was diagnosed with a bad headgasket (because it was getting hot)

-the owner bought a new car

-i went to take a look at it and i removed the thermostat because the lower rad hose was not getting hot

-i have driven the car over 100 miles without a problem, after removal of the thermostat

now my question is should sell my current daily and start driving this legend? i know headgaskets are pretty common and it has 170xxx on it but still runs great


give me some input

thanks
