I like that vc. Which years and models came with it? Great build thread btw.

i have NO idea, was discussed earlier when i got it about a year ago we *THINK* it was on a capri i know its a rare item for sure but thats about all i know. i dont think ive EVER seen one like it before either. with it rarity and condition it was hard to just PAINT it and not go out and get it powder coated. and thanks

did some clean up of the timing covers and oil pan in in the wash AS we speak. wife just laughed @ me when she saw what i was using for a cleaner figured she would be pissed off

I think that's the 1st 2nd gen pro/miata looking ford valve cover I've ever seen. Good to see you kept it.do you have the metal plate and front plastic for that?

yea chris i have everything for it

[Turpro]

IIRC Matt said it came from a ford laser overseas.

got the oil pan cleaned, painted, and baked in the oven for about a hour to set the paint on firm. tomorrow plans are to strip down the block enough to mask off and paint the block black but we will see how that goes

[Turpro]

Silver? Why? It makes it look cheap.























I had to lol

[90prtege]

holy hell i just made my week so awesome!!!!!! IM STOKED!!!! picked me up a 1995 EGT WITH THE STOCK 7 SPOKES !!!!!!!!!!!!! paid 200 for the whole car i will be selling 90% of it so stay tuned for the forsale on it!!!!! car runs and drives but has a rusted out rear strut tower. the interior is going in my Lx-egt. i have always loved this style of panels and seat combo. Good bye Ugly mx3 seats

[Turpro]

Nice score. I paid that much just for my 7 spokers lol

[deathtrigga]

wow your a lucky **** bro

[Lex]

Wow, you go through A LOT of cars.

[90prtege]

i only called on this one because i need the column and the only one i could find they wanted 150 bucks for it *screw that* since mine is busted and it turned out to be too good of a deal, im major happy i found it sadly its not worth repairing and making a driver out of it ALOT of under car rust. but the parts alone well worth it

[cis2711]

It;s not fair. The cheapest GT's around me are >$800.00. Good find! I'll be checking out the FS thread.

[90prtege]

well i got the car drove up 2 my warehouse took the cover off to see how bad the strut tower was and HOLY **** is ALL i can say. drove nice though plenty of power no smoke no weird noises

[worldhazard]

OMFG!!!!

how is that side NOT collapsed yet!

[90prtege]

*shurgs* i even drove it home and felt zero flex out of the rear
