Samesies, always liked those cars, I had no idea there was an awd model though. It's got me curious as to if my roommates is awd, I know it's turbo charged... I'll have to ask.

If its a came turbo'ed from the factory then yes, it would have to be the AWD model.  They only made the Turbo 1991 Impluses AWD in the RS trim. 

They are identified by the vent in the hood for the TMIC.

Whats your roomates name cole??  I know a guy in kelowna named kyle that has a couple Impulse RS's that hes collected over the years... and also has a turbo FWD geo storm as well if im not mistaken.  Are you still in kamloops?

Checked the other day and its definitely awd. And I live in Kelowna now, and my roomates name is Kyle... so I'm pretty sure its the same guy lol, small world!

My vote: Try and restore it. Kyle was saying there is maybe 200-300 of those original 800 left.
