Its got its share of problems (new guy)

Hey everyone, new guy here. Bought a 91 SE 5-speed last night and its has all the 3rd gen downfalls. I already fixed one window regulator, the power antenna's broke, and the Bose is going to be ripped out. There is a clunck when I take off and I found that the strut boots where torn. I didn't check the motor mounts yet. I ordered new axles because I have found no record of them being replaced. So there's my story.

least it doesn't tick when you first start it.

then again, wait till it cools off this fall and see if you have exhaust leaks then.

yep i have had similar problems like a window reg, foglight blub, power antenna, door lock timer, spoiler mounts on the trunk, and the infamous bose. It seems that these cars have alot of little bullsh!t problems, but as for "big" problems my VTCs are fine
