Thanks for all the reponses. OK, so an hour after I pick up the red SPG, I browsed around locally and found another! It was an 88 Grey w/123K. Owner abandoned it for a few months due to dead battery, but all in all in good condition - perfect dash and headliner, tranny didn't whine, appears to be leak free. Bumpers a tad scuffed from city parking, cracked left indicator, missing parcel shelf (again!) but overall runs very well, boosts quickly, quiet.
Asking $1850, and after a bit of haggling I got it to $1650 and paid for it. Yeah, that's right, I picked up 2 SPGs in a day, all for less than the price of a 1991 w/110K which I missed out on. Call me nuts. I guess it was a blessing in disguise. Oh well, a trip to the mechanic will tell.
It looks like I'll be alternating cars for my daily commute until all parts have been purchased to restore either one to mint condition. I'll be asking lots of questions, so please bear with me!
