Howdy,
I've been reading on this message board for a while.  Now I need some help.  I have an "87 convert that runs like crap when it will start.  I also have a '40 Oldsmobile that I want to put C4 suspension under.  I can't bring myself to cut up the '87, but I did find an '84 coupe with a bad motor and a recovery title for $2,000 or offer.  It is complete and runs, but the motor knocks really bad.  It has typical wear and tear, so needs everything cosmetic redone.  All of the body panels and glass are good.  I would keep the chassis and part out the rest, but I am wondering if being the first year, the suspension and rear end are as good as those in the later models.  Basically I want some input on what the body parts might be worth, if the chassis parts are as good as the later years, and will any of the electrical parts (computer for instance) work on my '87?  Any info would be appreciated.  Thanks
