Hey guys, it's been awhile, but I have a few questions I need to ask and I figure some people may have experiences with older cars (1985, specifically). I found a 1985 Pontiac Fiero GT for sale near me, it's about $7k. It has about 19,000 miles on it, which is what got me so excited. It's a beauty for sure, almost completely restored (aside from the engine and transmission). The reason for the low mileage is because it was used as a weekend car, like a joy-riding car. Someone bought it and serviced the brakes & A/C, new wheels, resealed the sunroof and put in an all new cooling system. No dents to the exterior and the interior is in great shape. My question is, in the long run would this car be worth it? My dad is skeptical because of it's age. He said if one thing goes, it'll be expensive to fix, but I love it. It's a gorgeous car.



I am almost positive I am not getting this car, but I am a nut for older Pontiac's, especially Fiero's and Trans am. I found a 1993 Grand Prix, alot of miles though and a really nice 2003 Sunfire.

So I am wondering, in your experiences, is an older car going to become a burden to take care of and service? and also, what's the insurance payments like? I believe this would be insured as a classic?
