So what was wrong with it in the first place

[nof03]

bought at a local scrap yard for 650 they didnt know what was wrong with it. body was in good shape and it has a clean title. they towed it to my shop and the fun began. put a battery charger on it and it started but it was only running on 2 cylinders. did a compression check 20psi on 1 2 &3 #4 had 140. pulled the head and found the blown head gasket. rebuilt the engine put on some springs and struts, exhaust, short shifter, fuel pump, tie bars, silvia conversion, 96 se seats...
