[Welcome2Detroit]

hey im looking to get a 4th gen f-body for this coming summer, and i found someone selling a 93 fire bird v6, green w/ cloth interior pioneer cd player, new tires, runs perfect, shifts perfect, one long deep scratch on the hood from someone backing into the car w/ a trailer hitch on the back. the only problem that is ee is the car has 200,000 miles on it.
but the car is only 1800.

OK

thanks.

what kinda problems do these engines normally have?
this would just be a summer driver so i figured whjen i get it do a major tune up, then during the winter, fix what could b going wrong or what is already wrong.

ring land wear.....ring wear.....water pump,......lifters.....

at that mileage....she's a heart attack to happen most likely. you would need to get a major history on her...and see all the repair info as well. if you can do most of the mechanical stuff..then.......maybe go for it. but its gonna eat up your spare time...as you know.

No No No.

Way Way too many miles.
