looking at buying a 95 gs questions

[nightgamer]

ok so im going to look at a 95 gs. The guy said it was stuck in neutral
and that his step dad pulled the tranny. To see what was wrong thinking it may be a clutch problem and it was not. So he was just going to sell it and posted it up on craigslist. Well i called on it and talked him down to $600usd. So he had his step dad put the tranny back in and now its shifting. So what im wondering is i only have about 800-900 to spend on a new car with the motor being in good shape with only 150k on the whole car and i having a rebuilt 6 bolt to drop in it if need be would this be a good buy o and the body is in great shape and the inside of the car looks like new all stock


ps. and what should i look for after testing compression and inspecting the car
and what could have mad it stop shifting?

The 6 bolt won't fit in that car. It's an entire different engine comparment.

that sucks so dose any one know why it would not shift then after putting the tranny back in it will shift

Something may have jammed the linkage. Such as a lighter or the intake.. this is NON turbo from what I understand from the last reply. So I have 0 experience on them. Under $1000 seems good though.

most likely, also could be low/no clutch or tranny fluid, or air in the clutch line. may be even the tranny it self. but for $600 i would still get it i got my 96gs for $850 and it had a blown engine plus it had a AT at the time.
