Nah, got it from a guy to take on as a project after he got hit by a truck that ran a stoplight in a intersection. Fixed for 700 and kept it.
Yugos have a few oddities about them. Their radiators don't work like they should, and can and will make the car run much hotter than needed. The engine doesn't like to run hot, so the engine head will crack and break, that's one of the most common causes of death of these cars, the other being premature timing belt failure. Despite being almost exclusively sold as manual, they lacked a tachometer, which was a big no no when selling the car to the Automatic dominated USA. Also, the cars needed 89-rated octane or better fuel for optimal performance.
Did you know that American Yugos were built differently than the European ones? In fact, when Malcom Bricklin went to spec out the manufacturing facility, he ordered the creation of a "better" division to meed the American safety standards. Conversely, Yugos are still abundant in Europe, while they've become extinct in the states.

73-79 was roundeye, 80 was a crossover year where some were roundeye some had a small rectangular headlight with the blinker below it and the 73-79 style grill, 81-82 had blinkers in the bumper and some had dual headlights, some GMC's had those bezels and the Chevy's had a different grill/bezel pattern, 83-87 of course had a few variations including the square blinkers behind the grill itself, then 88-91 was it's own deal for the suburbans/blazers.
