: I have come across a '91 5spd, 125k miles, 3rd owner who seems to have taken good care of the car. There are some minor dings, paint chips to the hood, no rust. He replaced the clutch and put in a short throw shifter 2k miles ago. Used only Mobil 1. New caps, rotors, and front brakes at 115k. New hoses at 99k. The a/c does not work and it seems the condenser will need to be replaced (how much will this cost?)The car drives smoothly, no hesitations, smooth idle. I spoke to the previous owner who said the head gasket blew, and he had the "entire gasket replaced" at 90k.

: Are there any other items I need to have checked and what other upkeep items/costs should I expect?

: Thank you for your advice

: Ram
