Default What should I look out for on older Teg?

Looking to purchase a 94 GSR. Found one with 122k mi. Looks good, no mods, very clean interior, dealer offers carfax report etc. No obvious damage or rust (southern car). What, if anything should I look out for on an older Teg?
TIA
chris

check to see if alternator has been replaced, radiator, wires, cap, brakes...basic things that you may have to pick up down the line (which can involve upgrading )

most likely the lca bushings (if you plan on doing shocks or lower tie bar) will be shot and you will have to burn them or have them pressed out. with no rust, id say if everything else is in line, go for it, and good luck.

you might want to take the car to a mech you trust and do a compression/ leakdown test also.
