    More trouble than it's worth.

    If you have the time and the room, part it out.

    I just bought a front air dam like the one on that car and fog lights plus a sport wheel like the one that car has for $200.00 locally.

    You can make a few bucks parting it, but as far as spending money on it as a driver, I would avoid it as that car has been severely neglected and will take a lot of work and money to get up to driving condition.

      I had absolutely no success with superclean, but I didn't let it sit for 3 days either.

              Sorry I didn't see your post before.

              Seriously, take it apart, clean thoroughly, and paint it.

              It is not that hard to pull your intake manifold, plus you can clean a bunch of other shit too.

              Get 2 work!
