most older cars have their problems.
then some have more than others due to the owners.
i got my 79 ta when i was 15. this car was fairly reliable. in the couple years i used it as a daily driver it never left me stranded. yeah it had a few problems. i had the carb rebuilt, tranny rebuilt & new water pump. other than that it was all normal wear and tear items. not too bad imo.
now i recently had a freind that had one of those starion turbos. now if he would have just left that car alone it might have ran more than it did! he always wanted to make something better breaking two other parts in the process.
it is hard to judge reliability of any car until you factor in the owner!
