    The report isnt much help either....I already knew it was a salvage title





    thoughts? The guy got it from a friend who works at a tow yard. He hasnt driven it much because it doesnt have plates. Car has the typical problems w/ sunroof, cluster, etc.He doesnt want much money for it though and there is a 5 speed swap I can pick on my move down from here as well. I would love a 190 as a daily beater next to my E30. My brother has a grey market 16v and my dad had a 8v 2.3 that was a fun beater.
    Doesnt look so bad. Looks better than my 190 I'll tell you that much lol. Wont get as great fuel mileage as my 2.2, but you should still be fine. Low 30s. Im around 30-37 with a auto trans, but I can easily break 40mpg with a 5 speed. Thats with my foot firmly planted all day haha.

      Just scrap that thing.

      How do you expect to EVER have another car if you can't spend even $500 on this one?

        Figure if you drop d cash to get it on the road you can at least break even + have something to drive for the mean time.

        Then again might be time to get a Honda.

                  Given his fiscal policies and frugality I think he could get our country back on track.

                  Turge for president...

                  said no man ever.

                  Morning all.

                    I'm considering doing a daihatsu 700D motor swap. That's a 0.7L 3 cylinder diesel motor. I could always have Dan Miller make me an un-performance chip.

                      302 swaps look so fun. Drove a ('93?) Mustang 5.0 today, sooo much win.
                      i have a secret love of foxbodys, they are ugly as sin badly designed in so many ways and a ford product but i still kinda want one

                        The problem is that it would be upwards of $500 for a non-working ETA. Not really a steal if you ask me. Hell some dude would have given me $500 for my wrecked vert.
