My boss's boyfriend's landlord has a 3.1 Turbo Grand Prix that he would be willing to let go for the right price. I've seen the car once and it looked to be in the same shape as any other early 90s GP you see on the road. The car runs but isn't driven much. It has some kind of wiring problem, probably having something to do with it living out in the woods.

I doubt anyone wants the car for a driver, but the 3.1 Turbo engine might be worth having. I have neither the money or the inclination to try that swap myself, so I'm passing along the info I have.

I should elaborate a little. I meant that the outside of the car is nothing special, looks like every other red car they put out in the late 80s and early 90s, the paint is oxidizing. The interior is actually about perfect, the guy reportedly babies the car. I'm getting sketchy details about the wiring issue, it may or may not have one now. I'm also going to find out the milage and price soon for you all. My brother is interested in it (can't afford it), so I'll probably use that as an excuse to test drive it.
