First off, long time no see to the community, its probably been a year or more since I last logged on. Awsale for a 185 I really wanted fell through and after searching for almost 2 years before hand, looking at Tracs became depressing so Ill admit I just walked away, however the alltrac obsession never died. Now I want to reintroduce myself to the community and reach out for advice before I act this go around... I'm still relatively knew to the alltrac.net but not to the tracs themselves have both helped worked on them and have had buddies who haved owned them seeing first hand the headache and pleasure of ownership. This inter, leads to why I'm posting this, a used dealership about four hours drive from my location has a 1988 st165 for sale, overall car looks in good condition with only minor details to be looked at. Millage is high, around 180 thousand and the interior is showing its age, such as ware on the seats, cracks in the dash, missing the interior door opening leavers on both sides, etc. It however has a clean title, appears to have never been modded and is completely intacted. Intacted meaning it still has all the orginal oem gear, like the original spare tire, Jack stand, tire wrench, cargo hatch cover, floor mats, tape deck, etc. The dealer also is offering financing for it as well, there asking $5000 for it with a $1000 down. I know most would say just pay cash and be done, I however started my own business about a year ago and everthing I have savings wise keeps going back into it, naturally. I dont exactly mind having a monthly payment if it's for a trac but not sure if $5000 is to much or reasonable, I want to at some point collect all three gens but starting with the first makes the most cents. So after teading all this do you guys think it would be worth it?
