To buy or not to buy?

I was looking at a 1991 Conti with 140,000 miles on it for $200. The only thing that was wrong with it was that it had a blown head gasket. The car runs and drives. How much do you think it'd cost to replace it, and do you think it'd be worth getting and getting fixed? Thanks. :steering

the biggest issue on these models are the airbags in the back that make the back end go down. If you purchase it check to see if it's had the bags changed and other then that I think it should be fine just.

I would touch that car if it were given to me.
