I think there are 2 different sets of codes on the Pontiac motors, but I'm not 100% sure. I would say check for a casting date on the motor. The biggest issue with the 2nd gen cars is the rear frame rails and around the windshield and rear window corners. I could see an easy $10-20K being put into that car so think about it. It's nice to do a project but in the end it usually cost twice what a completed car would cost. The cost of that car at $1500 is a moot point since that's probably the lowest cost point of the project. Like Tim said, you might be able sell off the white seats and recoup a good chunk right there.
