There is a man who has owned his 1990 Supra since 1990 selling his car on CL http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/5168210870.html

So because of this opportunity to own a car such as this, I would like to ask anyone who had prior ownership experience some basic questions: Would you buy again? What did you like/dislike about it? Has the head gasket issue worried you?

The heater core really isn't the issue, even if that's the cause. The paint and interior being in poor shape is. The car is notorious for blown head gaskets and it's showing a symptom of it, and it's not mentioned the gasket has been done. If it were cheaper it'd be worth the chance, but at that price and mileage everything should be good to go outside of minor imperfections.
