Default 91 LS Purchase

Hi everyone,

I have the chance to purchase a 91 LS 400 with 301k for $2500. I am just curious what you guys think about this purchase. I have no service records, and unsure of previous owner.

Do you have ANY info on the previous maintinence? has the cluster and/or LCD ever been repaired? are there any problems with it?

Dealer or private?

Nothing, it is pretty much the same as the one I got for $25. It has a bad climate control LCD and it has the tip of 1 needle that is not lighting up.

Yes I purchased a 91 LS 400 about a month ago for $25 the cost of tax and tag. This is a DIFFRENT LS 400 and the private party is asking $2500. I just need to know if it is a good deal. I was going to use my $25 car as the daily driver and the $2500 LS as my weekend car.
