So, i acquired this 2002 for darn cheap, the towing actualy costed me more...
41 000 original miles on it, last 10 years barned, so it has been used as a mouse house, a lot. I think nothing smell that bad.
The shell is very strong, it is much more better than my actual white turbo clone, so i may end up with somethig nice with it.
It needs several misc. parts as the PO did take it all apart, for an abscure reason.
For now, it needs two new fenders, which i have (fiberglass), a hood, which i have too.
The engine was apparently seazed, but after messing up with a big ratchet it started to rotate fairly easy, without any bad noises or so.
Then as today, 18-11-07, i managed to hook-up a battery and it cranked !!!!!
jeeez, i was not expecting much. Too bad it dont have a distributor (why ?) i am sure this baby would have started.
Its nice to hear an engine cranking on a car thats been sitting for so long, it tells me "hey, get me back to life " !!!!
some pictures as i got it, bare.
