I bought my 87 9k T for $700. It sat for 2 years on a dealer's lot. The turbo went 2 days after 'cause the oil (sitting)crudded up the turbo bearing. The auto tranny went 28 days later.
If the tranny is bad the fluid WILL smell burnt, if it does get the hell out of there.
To test the turbo, take of the intake hose (between the AMM and Turbo) and wiggle the shaft with your fingers. Wiggle up and down NOT in and out. If there is alot of play (touches the housing) you know that is going to be an 9000S soon.
-good luck, check ebay &
