I dont think having a DD really makes alot of sense when your race car is probably a solid 14 second car.

I could pay off all my debt by fixing it and selling it...but why the fuck would I sell a pristine 89 hardtop turbo with a very rare silver?? I *almost* wish it was a shitty shell so that I COULD buy it for $800 or so and part it out for $1000+

It looks nice, glad you got it that cheap!

But that car is FAR from "pristine"

Deffinitly a nice find. Keep it clean. It's hard to find older cars that haven't been fucked with.

Update: I checked the codes. All the ECU codes and only got
(Oxygen Sensor Signal)
Trouble Area
* Oxygen sensor circuit
* Oxygen sensor
* ECU

and

(Turbocharger Pressure)
Trouble Area
* Turbocharger
* Air flow meter
* ECU
* Intercooler system

Checked the AFM, not that. Doubt its the O2 sensor because it doesnt run long enough. Turbo "doesnt spool" so I think the seals are bad on this car too, lotsa oil. Still a steal for that price. Anyways, here's more pictures for proof:
