91 with 150,xxx .. seems sketcky

check the UVIP .. if it has like more then 2 owners then its prolly been rolled back for sure or maybe it stopped working for a bit

how do you check uvip?

the seller of a car - is supposed to provide a uvip ( used vehicle inspection package ) to the buyer .

its like $30 at any ministry of transportation office.

u need to give them the Vin number to get the uvip

go check it out usually the drivers side frame rail would be rusted near the firewall where it bends. and check the floor on the drivers side aswell. but yeah convince the seller to sell for like 1500 or less and if the body is in good condition, just grab a sr and swap the stock motor out. and if the motor does have 160k on it just turbo it.
