Rust in trunk
1500$ is way to much for an AE86 in this condition. You have to put several thousand $'s in it to bring it back in good condition. Not worth the hassle in my opinion

first off I agree with Ivan, this shell needs alot of TLC and effort to get running - best suitable for an all out super light track car project where you would cut out most of the metal and replace with composites and maybe even tubeframe certaini areas.

To keep things in perspective though 1500 CANADIAN $ are about 1000€ which isn't much IF all mechanical parts are in good condition and I'm not entierly sure if this is the cars price but rather what he's willing to pay to get the boot fixed (not doing it himself) - I could be off but the wording isn't 100% clear.

If it should end up as a daily sometime soon an you can't or don't have time to fix it yourself - go on and look for a better one.
