Default '96 D16y7 turbo'd or 89' Chrysler Conquest Tsi

Ok, so my Dad calls me today, apparently he met a little old lady who has had her sons '89 mint condition Conquest w/ 100,000 miles. He says she wants it gone, cheap.
I have a 96 DX Hatch right now, t3/t4 turbo, 440cc injectors, running Hondata, only pushing about 140 whp right now, and Im a little bored of it.

Going to an 20 yr old car seems like it might be begging for trouble though, especially as the shop my dad owns is in Ft. Myers, and Im living in Tampa.

I know very little about Conquests, actually nothing, other that what I read today. Any words or wisdom, or advice either way?
