I recently picked up this '88 LX for about $400. It has 195,000 miles on it and it doesn't leak any fluids. It has a little rust in front of the rear passenger side tire. The best part is it has WORKING A/C! I have been doing alot of stuff to clean it up on the interior and exterior. The interior was DIRTY! I took out all the seats and interior plastics and carpet for cleaning. I striped the seat covers off and washed them, they were almost black before I cleaned them, wish I had before and after pics of that. But luckily the seats were just dirty and not torn up. I scrubed all the interior plastics with soap and water. And I cleaned the carpet with it out of the car, was also very dirty but it was in good shape still. The car got the wheels off my '90 LX and I had four new Kumho tires put on them. I recently put four new struts on it. I have new Timken wheel bearings that I will be putting on it soon. It has gotten new spark plugs also. When I got it it need a passenger side door handle and some rear quarter glass screws( got them from batstiva, thanks again). I have been driving it everywhere and I have been averaging 32 MPG with the A/C on so I guess that isn't to bad. I think I might enter it for FOTM this month.
Luckily the LX interior isn't torn up and after the cleaning it is in really good shape. Even has the Cargo cover, but no underseat tray.
It had some old nasty purple window tint on it and I scraped that off, and under neath the old window was nice Factory tinted glass.
Today I put on some Bondo Restore Black, and some new red pin striping on the bumper and they look great now. I was surprised how nice they came out.

Here are some of pics of how it is now.
