96 riviera

[GrandPrixgtp2000]

Ok my friend is selling his 96 buick riviera with 139xxx on it for 200$ with a bad head gasket, I have my 99 gtp but i was thinking about buying the Riviera to drive in the spring when I pull my grand prixs engine out (clean up tranny, engine, engine cradle, and what not. Is it worth buying it to put a head gasket in and drive it for the spring?

It's probably LIM's anyways.

Just buy it now before he realizes it's a $200~ or less, fix.
