Definitely worth saving. Thats a really cool color. Fastbird has a '93 that color and it looks really nice. Head gasket isnt too hard, especially if you have all the time to do it. I'd recommend sending the heads out to get checked once you take them off to make sure they're not cracked or warped.

Depends on what you want to do with it Ted. You're known as the 3rd gen guy that buys and re-sells. Why jump into the 4th gen? Do you have a buyer looking for your help to fix it up? You just got a car for your wife. Why the 4th gen?

i liked the color and i figured i could fix it and drive it as a commuter car, i am going to part it out to muck work to get it back to being a realiable daily driver, sold most of the front to a local bodyshop for his sons car, i decided that i am keeping the 92 formula as the comutter car needs a rear, and the 89 formula 350 that looks like a 91-92 now, and the 91 z-28 comaro convert for me, becides the wifes new/used suburban and my suburban [ decided to have it painted and sell it in the spring] and my baby [ silverado ss] as well as the older stuff, got my work cut out for me this winter getting cars ready to sell come spring time, the swap meet is going to be fun
