I am interested in buying this 1993. I’m having trouble pulling the trigger, I need some advice please. I want it for just fun, it will not be a daily driver, can do basic maint. myself. Ok first the good- no rust that I can find, seems solid inside and out, pulled all carpet up and checked where I thought problem spots maybe, has 1fz-fe engine ( not sure if it was converted from carb or whole engine swapped ), 5 speed, smooth shifting, looks nice, price, newer axels, newer front end ( which I like ), has been registered and titled in my state
Bad- possible wiring problem, speedometer and fuel gauges do not work, unknown miles, has a newer dash ( from the same vehicle that it got the other parts from from what I understand ), can find only one vin plate
I’m sure there is other stuff I’m missing, has gotten an ok from another member on here that has seen the vehicle in person. I have a mechanic that is willing to check out the wiring and claims it shouldn’t be a hard fix, oil temp, rpm, water temp gauges work
Gonna post up some pics if I can figure out how, I had trouble the other day getting them to load, have a few more pics I may be able to post later if there is anything that somebody needs to see to help me make a decision ( the price listed on the photos is not what I’ve negotiated btw, it’s about $3000 less ) there are a lot of unknowns about the vehicle such where any work was done and by whom and exactly what vehicle the newer parts came off, anyway enough rambling
Thanks,
J
