If it were a 4-cyl I'd say it was worth $200. The 2.8L V-6 -- she should pay you to take it off her hands.

I 2nd Eagle's opinion I had an '85 with the 2.8. While it did run good (after I replaced the carb),it was still a little weakling compared to even the 4 banger. I'd pass on it especially since you mentioned the "R" word :shiver:

What, some glass???

Sounds like NOTHING else on it is worthwhile.

Probably even has the front CV hubs.

Really, junkie: RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY!!
