il give you 100 bucks for it :slight_smile: lol

wow, how many miles on it?

its going back together already

$100 wont even pay for the new brakes that car has, never mind the timing belt, alternator, rings and bearing that are on order, and the parts car sitting in the garage

it will eventualy be a pretty clean manual tranny car w/ 130k on the clock

i hope it falls of those rocks you have it standing on…

not really, but i’d like to buy it. after it’s fixed. haha.

the rear is supported by a pair of 15" steel wheels with spacer blocks on top of them, they wont be going anyplace, lol

lol i meant 100 bucks for the motor, but i was only kidding

lol, best mods list evar

Cool man. looks like a fun project.

AT - MT swaps are fun as hell in these cars… :roll:

pistons are clean, rings and bearings are on their way
