    Welcome. Check for major rust issues first under the car if that clears..then proceed. For that age and millage, you'll need to drop the fuel tank and replace the fuel pump and drain out that old bad gas. Get a fuel filter. Do a oil change and see how it runs and if the transmission gears work.

        Got it home friday night an hit the car wash on my way home looks allot better after a bath..lol Got it home rolled it in the garage put it up on jack stands and inspected everything top to bottom. Other than being dirty it wasnt too bad, someone took good care of it at some point. Then I went ahead and ordered all the basicis coil pcks, plugs, wires, air filter, battery, oil/filter, fuel filter and grabbed some slightly used tires out my basement to put it on for the time being. Had a hard time trying to get it to start the battery was junk so i had a spare kicking around and after some trial and error it fired. Then ran for about 8 minuets the rad fans kicked on and it died. waited a few minuets and it started up again ran fine than quit just like before. So now im going to have to track this down.. I really hope its a simple fix.. but having the week off of school I should have some time between work to mess around with it. I'll have more pictures soon.

          Welcome

          I personally would skip the coil packs.

          I would also get rid of the gray/red strip around the body above the ground effects and remove those moldings around the wheel wells. Mine looks much better that way. Click the link labeled follow the progress here in my sig to see pics.
