1985 Eurospec 190e 2.5 16 valve

I was offered this car today for purchase. Not really sure what its worth so I figured i would come here and get some opinions. Its a black on black car. Euro spec. Lowered. Carlson wheels. Getrag 5spd. Front and rear spoilers and lip spoilers. I cant remember if this is stock or not for the car. I had a us spec car years ago but dont remember it having wheel arch mlding. This car has about 90k miles showing and has been hotrodded for sure but never abused. I cant decide if I want to pursue it or not. Maybe it will be drivable tomorrow and that will help me make a decision. Thanks for any input. Flame suit on..................

It will depend on the condition. At the low end, it can be pitifully low, like $3K and at the "like new" level, over $15K

I checked compression this morning and put a set of plugs in it for the fellow. Next we will see about the ac system. Cars not worth anything in Texas with no ac.....................4600 with the ac working is what I would like to sell it for. It has a nice interior and a straight body. Paint onthe roof is faded and it needs new shoes.................
