Guys look here, tell me what your opinion is

Basically, should I go through the trouble to acquire this car?

Because I am lazy I will just post a link to the original thread...

Its risky, but it could be a really good deal. Make sure you are willing to walk away from the deal... And make sure you are ready to have a second car! Its more work than you'd think!

But if its truly rust-free, I'd say go for it!

Sounds like it'll be alot of work... If you want to go threw all that trouble fixing it up and making it pretty, go for it I really don't like the body thou, I think bring the Trueno, or corrolla 87 gts back would be a better project, but that's just me heh.

I will admit. 2nd gen Camry's are not the prettiest cars in the world stock. As far as potential goes, this car has it in spades.

I did just find out I have someone who lives in Denver colorado where after I get a ride down there, I can crash at their huse for the night. Then head back the next day after I have food and rest. I can probably also have him go look at the car in advance for me.
