Do you think you'd get $2800 of enjoyment out of the car in the modded state? ...or perhaps you'd get more enjoyment out of a newer (87+) 325i (a BMW that could be purchased for around $2800)...
Just some things to think about..
Any car I personally bought for $800 I'd just drive it until it didn't drive any more  .
