    New Protege LX owner

    Hello. I bought a Protege LX for my son for $150. The car is in good condition just needs simple motor replacement (230,000 miles- rings gone but runs). I've owned Escort GTs and a Tracer LTS so I'm familiar to this set up. Interior is in need of carpet, front seats, headliner, power window motors and moonroof motor. Thanks in advance for the help.

          Thanks guys.
          Well, my son wants a convertion of some kind to his Mazda. Like his old man does to Escorts.

          My goal is for us to rebuild it back to better than showroom new and let him decide. This car is a too good and can be reliable with TLC. We reside in Tennessee.
