1989 Sunbird GT Convertible  
2.0L turbo motor  
3 spd auto  
no rust found so far except surface on doors.  
interior is dirty  
top is shot (fabric, not mechanism. Opens and closes perfect.)  
Block has a hole in it, but top end and turbo are good.

Whole car for $350/bo, or make an offer on parts. Going to be parted next week is not sold whole. Top end parts would be good to turbo a 2.0L NA motor in a beater or a dd. Car is nice enough to restore as is, but I don’t have the cash. There is a motor and 5 spd swap in the junkyard here that I can give somene the info on if fixing.

no clue as to why there is a hole. Bought the car with the hole and broken rod, drove it 1.5 miles home and that’s it. been sitting since.
