The entire air conditioner needed to be re-done.
Two of the speakers including the one closest to the driver were cracked.
The radio also was getting very bad reception on most stations.
The car is in great condition, I bought it off the original owner and he still had the plastic on the back seats from when he originally purchased it. He only used it during the summer and kept it garaged for the rest of the year. He also kept a detailed record of what he has done to the car over the years.
I was able to get the air conditioner fixed, but for a good amount of money, I think total around 700 dollars.
I put all new speakers all around and upgraded the radio with mp3 and cd capabilities, and it sounds fine.
There is an unreliable security system located in the glove compartment that I have been hesitant to mess with.
The back seats are slightly cramped, but it hasn't been a problem for me as I usually only have 1 passenger or 2 and if there is only 1 person in the back seat it is OK.
The car is in tip-top shape with no rust or dents and the engine runs smooth.
I bought it for 4500 and then had it appraised and insured for 6000 dollars.
Guess the previous owner sure got his money's worth out of those seat covers.
You paid more than double the average retail value for an '82 Supra per NADA book.
I say it's worth every penny he paid. I guess only another Supra Guy would understand the collectible value. Have fun!
