early 944
I have the option to buy an early 944 for really cheap. I already have a 86 944 and wondering if it is worth the trouble. I think what is wrong with the car is that a timing belt broke and needs to have the head worked over and put back on, which isn't that bad of a deal I have had worse. It also needs a paint job and some minor cosmetic details. Is it worth it to go ahead and get the car and fix it?

Yesterday i missed another 1983 944 for 800 bucks, my dad called 1 hour too late and the guy let it go for 400 bucks. It had a good running motor, only messed up fenders/hood

Well I think I am going to pick up the car I am only paying 300 for so I think it is a good deal. All I really think it needs is a head job and paint. Plus it would beat using the cavalier as a daily driver. Anything I should look out for when doing the head job? Thanks for talking me into it.
