just looking for some good thoughts here. Or it could start a whole line of "well I thought the same thing, but this is what really happened and $10,000 later" type thread.
Since the guy I got it from had a shop put a new timing belt on to check compression. Cylinders 6 and 2 had low compression-not zero. There could be hope. The body is straight and no rust.
If it all goes to hell, you'll see it in the classified section getting parted out.
