i bought my TG for $1500 down from $2000.
paint was mint, 118 000km on the clock, interior in minit condition. 4 speed.2 " exhaust and it goes hard. i can beat a 1.5 ltr fuel injected exel. which is my mates car and that goes hard as well.
i think you can go for some thing better, than a 79 TE, cause they are crap. TG takes Unleaded. the first model to be able 2.
its up to you
