Need the trained eye's feedback

Hello all. So I came across this 87 GN and was looking for some feedback on what it would be worth, do you see any issues with it, etc... Any feed back appreciated.

The pics look good, but the real value is what the buyer is willing to pay. Have you seen the vehicle in person? Do your home work in getting the vin# and if possible take a knowledgeable tr owner w/you to verify the condition. If everything the owner has stated is true, that would be the top dollar I would pay for it.

I have not seen the car. It is about 4 hours away, so I was doing my HW before even heading to see the car. Thanks for feedback.

I wonder if he was trying to be cute and mean 'tire smoke'? then again you don't exactly have to work hard to see tire smoke.

Engine pics to verify if kept stock under the hood? Under chassis pics?

Boost gauge on the A pillar and a 145 mph speedo overlay is all I see so far. Car looks to be super clean, but definitely need an underhood pic.

Put it in the air & check for rust on frame, at inner fenders, around body mounts, on brake & fuel lines etc........ The worst is trying to make a star out of a pig! Take a magnet with soft rag and check for putty / rust, pull trunk mat & if poss. check for water leaks with a hose??
As always check running gear, fluids, rad, brakes and ...................
Good luck
