Post '87 c targa needing top end?

Please go slowly with me as this is my first post and first porsche, and I am sorry for not knowing all the lingo, but I am trying hard to not be ignorant.
I just bought this targa with 106k (8K dollars) and was told in the PPI that it needed a top end rebuild, as 4 of 6 cylinders had significant oil consumption, however, the car peformed well according to the unamed mechanic. The car otherwise was in very good shape, but now I have to decide what to do. The mechanic stated that as long as I kept if full of oil and new plugs, that it wouldn't hurt the car to be driven, but I don't have a clue. What would you motor guru's do?
My email is llcooljwt@hotmail.com if any of you might need it. Thanks for being there, all of you.
