Have you ever had a buick before?

Thats alot of car. I'd suggest a more stock'ish type setup. Getting a car like that might be biting off a bit more than you can chew.

I've seen alot of people buy highly modified cars, not ever owning a buick b4 and have nothing but problems b/c they dont know how to make the cars run.

Tearing up parts on these cars can get very $$$ very quick.

That car is worth between 12-14k IMO...

HTH...
 
Yeah I have owned a TR before, also have a couple of turbo Suzuki Hayabusa's as well.

I'd plan on putting money into the tranny, with that combo its probably going to pop soon. How good are you at fixing stuff and who did all the work? Make sure whoever built it knew what they were doing about putting the motor together and didn't treat it like another SBC build. $13k sounds about right for it maybe less with the paint going bad.
