All of them had single stage paint until you got the metallics in 1996 or so.
Tires will be $450 installed, and really you want lighter wheels than those heavy steelies (which, yes, were stock on the base trim) so factor that in. Maybe $700 for wheels with good tires on them already? Roof is $500 installed if you come to nova, or $250 plus two days' labor to DIY.
You'll need to change every fluid ASAP - oil, trans, diff, brakes. Check for rust where the door meets the rear rocker panel.
$800 is an okay starting point, but I'd almost rather spend $2k and just get one that's been driven regularly and deal with less "get it to run" crap.
